Title of Literary Work that Inspired Your Piece
Leaves of Grass
Year Artwork was Completed:
2025
Author of Literary Work:
Walt Whitman
Excerpt/passage used as inspiration:
"I believe a leaf of grass is no less than the journey-work of the stars."
The work takes inspiration from Whitman's reverence for all forms of life, celebrating the sacredness of growth, whether cosmic or cellular. There is no singular focal point, no fixed narrative-just movement, rhythm and expansion. A single mark is as essential as the whole-each contributing to a larger organic choreography of change. It reflects the emotional and spiritual surges that define us-the quiet revolutions of the self.
