What really attracts me to Jenny Holzer's work is the seeming romanticism and confessional style that her words project. It's something that I've also pondered doing with my work. Combining literature that I make with the art that I create would be a great fusion of my body of work. I also really love the size that Holzer works with. Projecting these large phrases or displaying them prominently really captures ones attention. I specifically love that juxtaposition between public setting and private subject matter. It almost seems you're in a little secret despite the fact that everyone else around you is part of that secret. It's a little nerve-wracking though thinking how vulnerable art like this is for the artist. She's basically baring her soul for everyone to witness, which I'm unsure I have the confidence to do yet.
