Turning to Wallpaper: Poems and Art - Paperback

by Heidi Wong (Author)
"Wear poetry as both perfume and armor."
In Turning to Wallpaper, lush, elegant language contrasts with the disturbing and at times gruesome imagery to create a collection that knows exactly how to haunt the reader. Wong's words and artistry are vibrant with color, richly textured, defiant, and unapologetic in their boldness. Her speaker undertakes a spiritual journey of remembrance that transcends body, tradition, and even nation in the pursuit of authentic art--art that is constructed using radical acceptance of the past as a means to leave it all behind. This is a story where no wounds are softened or left unconfronted. Unconcerned with conventional beauty, it is undeniably beautiful.Author Biography
Heidi Wong is a poet and artist who grew up between Beijing, Hong Kong, and New York.
While specializing in expressionistic oil painting and hyper-realistic digital art, Heidi's poetry is equally packed with intensity and boldness. Since posting her work on social media at 15 years old, she has developed a unique voice composed of the stark juxtaposition between surreal and macabre imagery with intimate and beautiful language. Her third collection, Turning to Wallpaper, focuses on the idea of transcendence--transcending the silenced and demonized female body, conceptions of femininity and masculinity, tradition, and even nation in order to ultimately reconcile with and escape one's past.
