In the Shimmering Black Soup

"In the Shimmering Black Soup" oil on paper, 20 x 20 inches. This item is unmounted and unframed.

Continuing an exploration of the poem Fiddleheads:

I think I’ll come back to life now. It’s odd to think of something so big we could miss

the elephant we’re living on, like this planet Earth, is she alive and we’re her brain cells,

each one of us flickering, going out, coming back to life? Even Chicago looks poignant

from the top of the Hancock, organized and sincere. Think if we were photographing

Earth, how dear she would be, how we’d watch her shimmer in the shimmering black soup

of the firmament - FROM FIDDLEHEADS BY MAUREEN SEATON

This piece is unframed. It will be carefully packaged in mostly repurposed shipping materials.
