Re: Review of Artwords

Post by Janelydia Mwangi »

A unique way of communicating about our surrounding and feelings of love . However it's a bit challenging to understand images especially if unfamiliar with works of art ( redacting and calligram) that create images with words. Beatriz is more on images to communicate rather than pen down complete words.
Through "ArtWords" she has broughout creativity and a new perspective of communicating.

I think it's great that the author used the calligram technique to form shapes and pictures from words. I also think it’s great that Beatriz M. Robles used metaphors.

the book seems interesting and I find your review intriguing especially where "one of the photos has a comb with words that makes it look like a woman is talking to her comb about how the object gives her confidence and makes her feel pretty". I'd definitely love to read the book thanks for an amazing review

This book on art is a unique poetry book that brings several artworks together. It includes implicit meaning or interesting wordplay, creating different stories about each picture. A creatively and effectively written book and a good book review. Congratulations on the BOTD!

It sounds fascinating and unique. This book is the first of its kind that I’ve heard about that shows artwork made from ordinary objects and combining them with poetry.

I've always loved art that points out the beauty in the mundane, in everyday things and events that we overlook or take for granted. And it seems like this book also brings a sexy surprise to the table. I'm glad that the language is not extremely complicated because as a non-native speaker, poetry can be hard to grasp.
Thank you for your fantastic review!

The use of art and words is an interesting feature of this book. The cover is eye-catching, though the use of color is important to make the text easily readable. I like some sensual poetry when done in a subtle way, but I do not think I would gravitate towards a book where it was the main feature.

A unique poetry book "Artwords" by Beatriz M. Robles, which brings several artworks from the author. Nice thing is that the book has a blend of sensual aspects from everyday lives and creative images. I feel this book is worth reading.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.
