Video Poetry by Désirée Jung

The Analysis

 

The Border

 

From the artist: My name is Désirée Jung, and I am poet and visual artist from Vancouver, Canada. My portfolio includes published poetry, translation, and fiction. My most recent work, a series of video poems, in both English and Portuguese, speak on the relationship between language, landscape and displacement. There are three series of video poems addressing issues matters of identity, lack, desire, excess and capitalism. My visual art is also an attempt to translate light, despite hopelessly failing it. For more on my digital art, writing, as well as my video poems, please see my website: www.desireejung.com.
