Your mouth with golden lips
Paul Γluard
(Tr. Mary Ann Caws)
Closing my eyes on myself, I am all yours,
My whole life listens to you and I cannot undo

Distractedly pawing at the old notebooks, ambushed by their scratchy configurations of desire.

Oil, pastel, and lino ink.
ELMS All day I tried to distinguish need from desire. Now, in the dark, I feel only bitter sadness for us, the builders, the planers of wood, because I have been looking steadily at these elms and seen the process that creates the writhing, stationary tree is torment, and have understood it will make no forms but twisted forms.

"Witch Going to the Sabbath" by Remedios Varo depicts a surreal figure adorned in a flowing, ethereal garment, its mysterious expression enhanced by a flamboyant crown of red hair. Varo's work often blends mystical themes with a meticulous, fantastical style, drawing on her interest in alchemy, magic, and the spiritual world.
