Fantastic Leaves Sent

October 31, 2021 by Simon Robinson 2 Comments

You might credit the idea for this chapbook theme to Irish sculptor John Behan. I have seen one of his“Bronze Birds in Flight”whipped and wrapped by a trained wisteria. It was reconfigured as an inversion of power, an unintended green tableau, in which the entwining organic leaves appeared to restrain, if not smother, the metal-frozen doves.

Coastal Birds Mailed

This chapbook series started during a time when our movement was restricted to 5 km from home. Here, on the suburban coast of south County Dublin, two thirds of that area is offshore.

Sometimes an adverb is enough, as illustrated by poet Diarmuid Fitzgerald:

without my map –
joyously lost

Reflections Chapbook Posted

July 1, 2021 by Simon Robinson Leave a Comment

As a reflection seismologist, I  spent four decades reducing sound echoes into visualisations of rock formations long buried from view.

As a photographer, I seek to capture incidents that might not otherwise be seen.

As a rambler, I try to emulate reflections: they leave no trace.

“The most important question we must ask ourselves is, ‘Are we being good ancestors?’”- Jonas Salk
