I write in praise of the Belgian poet, visual poet, & net-artist known
as <__lo-y. > ...
I have followed the work of <__lo-y. > since 2002, with great interest
& appreciation. Much of her work is profoundly original & dynamic, in
conception & in action. Her work is not rooted in functionality or
utility. The deliberate assembling of text & character symbols have
constantly referred to the formal possibilities of the code behind
digital content, making it its subject. The poems of <__lo-y. > are
abstract works, stripped of narrative, subjectivity, or factional
slant.
In one descriptive statement from Lo_y, she wrote "well there's not
much to say. Lo_y is only what Lo_y writes. No history, no stories,
no explanations ..."
