Chaque phrase est forgée: facettée, délibérée, équilibrée entre la miséricorde et la vérité. Elle sait à quoi sert chaque entaille de l’épée. Ses joyaux sont la précision et l’articulation.
“MA-LE’L DUNES: Return of Digawututklh”, 2020
I—came—from—the—many.
The poetic specificity of Linda’s practice and woven philosophy are embodied through the LAND BACK sand dunes, redwood forest, and salt marshes that defined their early 20s–30s living off the grid and on ancestral Tuluwat land in Far Northern California.
In 2024, Linda immigrated to Rotterdam, the Netherlands and in the same year, nearly 360 acres of coastal dunes and wetlands were finally returned to the Wiyot Tribe.
“THE ANTIQUE SORCERER”, 2024–27
Licht—etste—de—lucht.

Organizing life around long-duration making. Linda’s language consistently uses imprint, spoken architecture, second spines, objective oxygen, atmosphérique, structures of meaning to reflect iconic printmaking, textile logic, bodily awareness, housing instability, environmental sensitivity, and labor systems.
The Antique Sorcerer is a masterpiece of literature, poetry, existentialism, melody, and theatre. What kinds of intelligence emerge through carrying others, surviving instability, and rebuilding life repeatedly?
