An experimental work of visual poetry that explores the relationship between movement, perception, repetition, used to encounter the world around us.
Liv Moriarty distributes fragments of text across diagrams, circles, arrows and intersecting lines, creating a sequence of visual propositions that operate somewhere between poetry, drawing and speculative notation. The book's sparse compositions suggest collisions, interruptions, changing directions and recurring movements, inviting the reader to consider how meaning might emerge through spatial relationships as much as through language itself.
Words are positioned as though subject to physical forces, while the recurring vocabulary of falling, digging, velocity; it is philosophical about its treatment of movement as both a physical condition and a way of thinking, particularly in the suggestion that perception depends upon what escapes our attention as much as what we consciously observe.
