Bestiary of Shadows (Bestiario de sombras): A Bilingual poetic collection

 |
Descrizione |
This collection of poems was written within a concentrated period, resulting from an exercise in intense introspection. It reflects on personal themes, obsessions, and memories that needed compiling, akin to editing a video. The poems function as sequences that guide the reader to viscerally experience the writer's mindscape through vivid readings and fetishized characters. There are no extreme pains, traumas, or passions portrayed, only images gathered in the serenity afforded by time - organized, edited, and staged within a conceptual setting. The pictorial nature of the work lends the words a textured quality, revealing itself as transmuted, localized, and blurred meaning, wavering between linguistic convention and the sound of the ineffable private experience. However, a bridge is drawn between personal experience and the accumulation of relatable moments that allow poetry to resonate with those who have lived and felt similarly. In an era where the simulation of humaan experience through machines and algorithms both amazes and unsettles, it becomes crucial to highlight everything that renders us human - unique and singular.
