Beginning of a Poem is an exhibition of new works by Los Angeles-based artist Hannah Tishkoff. Tishkoff draws on visual language borrowed from education and design—diagrams, measurement systems, color bands, counting dots—to explore how individuals are shaped by the structures around them. Some structures are followed carefully while others loosen or collapse. Bodies appear as diagrams rather than portraits. The exhibition takes its title from Paul Klee, sharing his interest in the generative space where instruction, belief, and intuition meet before resolving into form.
