Experiment 3 - Poetry

In this project, I have reimagined my origin piece into a poem that peels back the layers of its artistic centerpiece—the painting. The purpose of this poem is to breathe life into the past, using a distinct poetic lens to illuminate various facets of the original composition.

​

In the poem, the painting takes center stage as a silent narrator, recounting the tales woven into its canvas. Each stanza animates the brushstrokes of history, unveiling the nuanced shades of emotion and generations of memories encapsulated within its frame. 

​

From the perspective of the painting, the poem constructs a multifaceted portrait of this narrative, exploring the significance wrapped within this family heirloom. This project aims to embrace art, a medium that transcends time and space, as a bridge for understanding. By opting for poetry as the medium for this piece, I aim to infuse emotion, symbolism, and vivid imagery into this historical narrative, inviting you, the reader, to engage with the narrative is a new and profound way.
