Abstractions
A portrait of Poet Lucy Elizabeth Christopher.
From Lucy:
"What do you see? How does it make you feel? I don’t think I would be honouring myself or this portrait if I were to dictate what you are seeing. Because nobody has the power to manipulate a vision. We see what we want to see. We feel sensations as they rise. We form questions and ideas naturally when space is allowed. And to be honest, I want to give you that freedom to envision. I write purely for the unequivocal part of me that won’t surrender unless I do. And I have never really fallen into a category that could encapsulate who I am, therefore I honestly struggle to attempt a synopsis of the self. So it’s simple. I just want you to take what you want. I just want you to feel what you feel. Because we are boundless. Limitless. Endless. Infinite. And most importantly. We are here. Merci, Lucy."
