ABOUT THE BOOK
Poet Arthur Sze and artist Susan York have collaborated in this singular publication, where drawings and poetry enrich each other. Eleven diptychs comprised of twenty–two densely layered graphite works on paper by Susan York are interleaved with an extended, multi–voiced poem by Arthur Sze. Together they explore, embody, and enact shifting points of tension.
