She's so elegant, and methodical in her optical trickery. I love her works.
Auerbach has a background in typography and an interest in scientific books. Her work can be described as an exploration of semiotics, with a playful hint.
Like a scientist, she dissects language as a code of symbols and a conduit for ideas.
She's (like me and Lewis Carrol, etc.) so into anagram (a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of another), which historically has been utilized to carry secret messages or hidden meanings and by great writers such Carroll and most of all, Nabokov.
