Lisa Levy's 'Thoughts In My Head' pays homage to post modernists and famed artists Jenny Holzer and Barbara Kruger featuring over100 images of her popular and important text based artwork. The book wasconceptualized by the written language that's out in the world - graffiti, signs, posters, flyers, matchbooks - in one big cauldron.

How quickly words are processed and discarded if they are processed at all. She believes ultimately language is the best tool to communicate our thoughts efficiently, and however woefully inadequate.
