| dc.description.abstract | This collection is an internal and external exploration of perspective. Employing both ekphrastic and personal poems, this collection asks the question: do we look at a piece of artwork the same way we look at a relationship? Recurring themes of the personal poems include hands and fish. As with still-life paintings, everyday objects in these poems are imbued with significance. In contrast, attention within the ekphrastic poems is often placed on insects and light, showing how movement and life can be found on the canvas. | |
