Transfiguration is a compilation of images and words by Pange (Angela Welsh).

For the first semester of my honours year of university, I studied hypertextuality in digital media. The course was primarily focused on CD-based digital works such as Shelley Jackson's Patchwork Girl. Words and images are powerful on their own but the relationship between the lexia of the hypertext creates something that can't be replicated easily in a traditional spine-bound form.

Transfiguration does not appear hypertextual at first. The figures are numerically ordered and viewing them in order creates a traditional viewing experience. However, the web is innately hypertextual. Viewers may prefer to view the the figures by tags or by thumbnails. This project is still in progress, expanding as inspiration hits.

It's not a one step process.

It starts with a pen and paper: words, words, words. Sometimes it's the shutter closing on the SLR that triggers the words instead of the other way around. It doesn't matter. They come together.
