The language we choose to use - not just in conversation with others, but the words we also say to ourselves; about ourselves and our lives, matter.
This project began when I asked 3 people to choose and send me their word of the year. In response, I'm creating an artwork inspired by these lovely words. As a result, I've ended up making art that I can't envisage I would have ever made otherwise, so this is now the start of a new, longer-term project!
If you have a word that you'd like me to make an artwork about, then drop me a message on the contact form and we discuss a commissioned piece for you ✍️🤩
This one here is 'Basium'. It's Latin and means 'kiss'.
Hello, Basium
She reached out her hand ~
"Hello, Basium"
Hello again
A kiss!
She was here, before, today,
all days
Salutations!
From Basium's lips x
(she feels the air around her arm, around her hand... And she knows love surrounds her. Anyone who loves being in nature knows this though)
