Jack Pierson’s word sculptures are a significant part of his artistic practice and have gained recognition for their visual impact and emotional resonance. These sculptures consist of individual letters or words, often made from found materials such as vintage signage, salvaged metal, or discarded objects. Pierson's word sculptures explore themes of love, desire, longing, and melancholy. The words he chooses are often simple and evocative, conveying a sense of vulnerability and emotional intensity. By presenting these words as physical objects, Pierson invites viewers to engage with language in a tactile and visual way, blurring the boundaries between text and art object. The use of materials adds an additional layer of meaning to his word sculptures. The weathered and worn appearance of the found objects lends a sense of history and nostalgia to the pieces. Through this juxtaposition of text and material, Pierson creates a poetic and introspective atmosphere, inviting viewers to reflect on their own experiences and emotions.
