Opis

In Tempting Attempts of Temperance Word and Sketches give form to the unearthly, the remote, the inaccessible. Traces of a dream that stands out against symbolized paths of life taking the form either of a lyrical script or a visual contour. The mediation of the binding agreement maximizes the distance from the object of desire and turns it into an unreachable, cold detached and inattentive subject. Transferring the impossible meeting to the object of desire itself alchemizes the latter into an inaccessible stronghold, introverted, self-referred and eldritch. In this call of the dream and mediation becomes oblivion and the object of desire, exposed to involuntary lapse of memory, is transformed into notional essence and gets nailed down to imagination. This set of poems culminates into the last poem where silence of voice becomes silence of death accompanied by the hope of a probable regeneration of the meeting, a transition from the impossible to the possible, from the unreal to the real.
