creating decorative verse in community

Singular Verse contains decorative verses in singular forms that I create. Typically, my books are made from found objects of which there is just one copy. Some of these books will be released into community in a hand to hand reading project, that recognizes the importance of face to face, tangible relationships. From person to person, book to person, person to book, then book to other, Singular Verse projects support relationships in a full circle that begins again with person to person connections. Some singular books will make their way to just one reader, maintaining the importance of the book as an art form.

Please check in from time to time to see what the next Single Offering might be.

Connecting as One


There is something magical in the starlight that I see...
I see the Universe inside of me!
This was the most Astounding Fact about the Universe, shared by astrophysicist Dr. Neil DeGrasse Tyson with the publication Time in 2011.  It somehow seemed fitting to start 2013 with the knowledge that my atoms and your atoms, and indeed, the atoms around us all-came from exploding stars!
 
If 2012 started with a blog on the Whirlpool galaxy and its birthing of stars, then 2013 starts with an acknowledgement of shattered pieces from unstable stars, populating our planet and becoming one with us.
In One there is Peace and in Pieces there is One. Watch for this theme in a coming collaborative art project entitled Peaceful One.
