Mother, A Poetic Triptych

Poetry by Emily Moeck

My Mother series is purposefully interactive. It is meant to be touched. The reader must play an active role in its material composition. Mother purposefully conflates the boundaries between the teller and the told and invites us to step into the liminal space between history and memory and the complicated ways we compose our realities.
