Synopsis: Visitor's Fore consists of an altered children's board book; Eating the Alphabet: Fruits & Vegetables From A to Zis painted over in a semi-transparent white wash, and then layered again with black spray paint. In the process, the units of language are covered, only to re-emerge at the command of the artist.

Visitor uses the alphabet to delve into a variety of four letter words, where each letter corresponds to an ironic stencil drawing with a political motive. G is combined with "Grow" and a handgun, Q is for "Quit" and the silhouette of President Bush's face, while U and "Ugly" is illustrated by the American flag. Crassly conflating iconographies, Visitor enacts a literal twisting of language, not unlike the aesthetic and political subjects he depicts.
