Sentence Diagrams is a series of works that use the form of the sentence diagram, a classroom tool once used to teach grammar. Formerly lines of original poems, these sentences are entirely restructured. Reiterating or undermining the sentences' content, the work in this series addresses the hierarchies, structures and overwhelming eloquence of language.
