Mother Mary's Doing a TicTuk Live

by Michelle Moloney King

This is a colouring book of an experimental poetic nature. The artistic interpretation of visual poetics through the familiar images of Biblical text thus making it our own. What is visual poetry - mark making, creating a new language, maybe hiding meaning, perhaps a form of art brut; a naive form of artistic expression from those without the art history education or the words. Art therapy uses a form of visual poetry to read into their patients work and call it recovery or a cry for help. Poets, of the experimental kind, use vispo to gather all 26 letter and bop them into new shapes, colours, hues...we are breaking all connotations of metaphor, alienating alleratation, moving away from the basics of the senses of lyriciasim and dancing into a new sign system. Words can transform, empower, depress, bully, convence, allow, forbid, affirm, hypnotise, shame, uplift and tarnish. Linguistics and their construction need to be dismantled and brought back to semiotics of philology. We, the experimental poets and devotees of the writers from the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E school, do this through the play of signifiers and signified; On no...smoke! That means the elephants have rolled in paint again. I want to thank F?ileac?in for the memory box they gave to me and my little family. I am happy to be able to give back.
