In this photographic essay the author explores the relationship between typography and the visual world around us. Each letter of the English version of the Roman alphabet is refracted, appearing in four dimensions: as the world presenting itself in the shape of a letter; as an intended letter in space; as a flat letter on paper, and finally in the manner of a pure geometric form embodied in a typeface. Familiar letterforms are presented in fresh, surprising ways, forming an homage to the beauty of type and a reflection on its ubiquity in our visual understanding of the world around us.
