This book is a collaboration, a celebration of words and images.Combining artistry in poetry, image making and painting, the book explores through word and abstraction, responses to themes of family and connection, travel and memory, and the significance of the trace lines we leave in our individual and collective lives. The poems and abstract images attempt to make sense out of the unusual or incidental. They speak to each other, finding safe keeping from otherwise meaningless traces.David’s first collection of poems are, at heart, relational and quizzical observations of the peculiarities of daily living. The haiku form holds the ephemeral and detached experience of travel while sonnets and formal poetic structures are reserved for more serious subjects. Lindi’s accompanying images comprise photographic lines, patterns and obscure details, as well as explorations of abstraction in painting. Her work can be read as traces of travel, place and curiosities like rain running down a Kyoto wall on a gloomy day or a chalk drawing on a Parisian street board. There is an intrinsic and unsung beauty in the ordinary to which Lindi’s images and paintings allude.Placing our poems and images together in this book has been a serendipitous experience. We hope you enjoy what we offer you as reader and viewer alike and find within these pages trace lines of your own. “Erudite and heartfelt, the striking imagery in Trace Lines: Poems & Images deftly navigates the difficult terrain of late middle life, with its losses, complex loves, and unexpected joys.
