“If we could see words before our eyes, what would they look like?” Yuko Ohnari imagines answers to this question in The Shapes of Words. Beautiful words are flowers, hurtful words are needles. Some words are blankets, others are tanks. The important thing is to imagine the impact your words have on other people. Maybe if we all took a moment to visualize the meanings of the things we say, we would choose our words more carefully.
