notes
I created each of these poems specifically
for the "Vispo" exhibition
in Miami. "The Drunken e" came into existence through a multi-step
process of arranging cardboard letters, scanning them, and
manipulating the scanned image. The other pieces I created in a single
day by using my long-dormant calligraphic skills to form poems that
included asemic and verbal textual elements. These calligraphic poems
allowed me to find joy once again in spreading ink across a page and
watching it dry. |
