ARIANNA SEBO

 

THE SETTING SUN IN WINTER

tops of trees
orange
glowing
everything below drab and grey
when the sun sets all will fall in
darkness
ready for the nocturnal
pains of the city

POETS IN MORSE CODE explores the role of interpretation in storytelling. By incorporating Morse Code, one of the most widely used and recognized ciphers in existence, Saiterux juxtaposes lines of poetry against photographs and technical illustrations of flora & fauna from the early days of scientific exploration. Through the text and image pairings, the illustrations lean into the abstract elements of a story, recognizing that storytelling depends on the written word as well as the imagination, experiences, and knowledge each reader brings to the occasion.
