The Mapping of a Flower

Oct

The Mapping of a Flower was a bit of an experiment in trying to conceptually envision the transformation of colour into bordered space, or how one creates or imagines real objects in one’s personal mind. I have never been very good at visualizing perfect objects; everything comes to mind in an imperfect, distorted manner.

Désirée Jung

My name is Désirée Jung and my intention here is to immerse into words. Writing my biography is a bit like witnessing the spectrum of my own gaze – an impossible task, due to its volatile and vulnerable contingency. For that reason, I let the poems speak for myself. I can add that I’m a Brazilian-Canadian artist, lover of beauty and everything (but not-all) that comes from a feminine space.
