Memento Mori : Poetry and Artwork
Bok av Victoria King
Memento Mori takes the reader on a pilgrimage in poetry through French villages in the steps of Cezanne, van Gogh and Matisse, and to Italian hill towns to see sublime quattrocento frescoes. Author/artist Victoria King's poems reflect the paradox of encountering beauty while experiencing profound grief. They delve into the nature of impermanence and the psychological complexities that can surround the death of a loved one. The poems illuminate the transcendent nature of art and its darker side. Her intimate photographs and original artworks resonate deeply with the insights, sensations and emotions evoked by the poems.
