"Rising She Spreads", "Easters"

Abstract

Inspired by the work of Plath as well as by several international women poets, such as multilingual poet Amelia Rosselli or the Argentinian writer Alfonsina Storni, who addressed trauma and impermanence in their writing, the poems aim to re-create the lost threads that emanate from Plath's work. At times, this only implies a correspondence in the Goethian sense of the term, while at others, the resulting effect is a clashing of imagery reminiscent of Alexey Kondakov's paintings.
