This project reinterprets 19th and 20th-century poems through the lens of queer ecology, transforming language and form to challenge normative ideas of identity and nature. It begins with queer voices reading these poems, generating sound-based visualizations that evolve into digital sculptures of mythical creatures. 
Using a laser cutter, I further alter the original text, turning words into abstract shapes that question linguistic norms. The final outcome is a poetry book where words, sounds, and sculptural forms merge, offering a multi-sensory exploration of queerness, language, and the fluid boundaries between the natural and the imagined.




Audio archive


 The process begins with the auditory experience of these poems, where queer voices are invited to contribute to a collective archive.
