Lasting, Ephemeral Radiance

Serena G.

• Artist Statement

  "Lasting, Ephemeral Radiance" is a mini collection of poems exploring the juxtaposition of the permanence and transience of life. Each poem shares the common thread of depicting resonant feelings or subject matter (like death, for example), coupled with an air of otherworldliness through the infusion of supernatural, celestial, and surreal concepts.

• Creative Statement

  To me, creativity often presents through the expression of words. Creativity embodies freedom; the ability to articulate fears and process complex emotions in a way that allows for the transformation of feelings into art. Creativity means self-discovery, empowerment, and being authentic to your emotions and personal experience of life.
