Carta a Mirtha is a graphic work that comes from the project Cartas a Mirtha by artist Sebastián Barrante. The poster contains an exercise of illegible graphics printed in silkscreen in a run of 30 copies.

Cartas a Mirtha (Letters to Mirtha) is a project by Sebastián Barrante in which he explores different dimensions of asemic writing. In this way, he creates different families of graphism based on their visual characteristics, which are then inserted into a conventional format, such as the letter, reflecting the concepts of writing, reading, and publication.

The project is a quote from the Argentinian artist Mirtha Dermisache’s works, who used several conventional formats to insert her illegible writings, creating a union between the graphic nature of writing and the graphic nature of conventional formats in publishing.
