"Their Shadows Speak to Us"

A mixed media experimental piece.
This piece is FRAMED. (see picture)

The words included are:

"I uncovered
these spirits,
Twisted up in a coil of
eternal vulnerably
sounding their harsh cry
through time forgone.

From the first moment to the last
they move, lashed by the wind,
intertwined in never ending flight
whirling,
sighing
shining with overpowering art

their shadows
speak to us
and disappear.

I'm trying to find them again. "

This piece started as a mixed media demo for art students at Ivy Tech in Indianapolis.
I developed it further into a full piece later on.
