POETRY OF THE EARTH

ABOUT THE DESIGN

Our goal in creating this design was to bring nature, art, and poetry together in a way that celebrates the earth like we have never done before. Historically, the term Ekphrasis was used to create a responsive piece of art to a piece of poetry, or vice versa. In creating this design in response to romantic poet John Keats, we created a new kind of ekphrasis, one that adds possibly a third layer to this dance. New outfits and ensembles will now be created with this design, and thus what began with poetry, became art, and now will become a creative tool for you in your wardrobe. We hope this piece inspires you to look at nature, art, and poetry in a new light, and we hope you enjoy wearing your piece of the journey.
