Self Portrait, after Man Ray – Ekphrastic Challenge, January 25

January 26, 2021 / The Wombwell Rainbow

The world according to RedCat

Kerfe Roig – Self portrait #15 (after Man Ray)

Perfect pattern
Imperfect person
Soul learn
Life’s caldron
Shadow emerge
Shaping light
Pieces converge
Passion write
Muses release
Invigorates life
Creative peace
Rebirth’s midwife
Sparkling bright
Connection clicks
Inspiration ignites
Rise Phoenix

A self portrait poem, inspired by self portrait artwork, that is inspired by a self portrait rayograph. If that sounds confusing and dizzying, I can only agree. It’s also fun. *smiles*

Read more about Man Ray on Wikipedia and MoMA.
