Amelia Etlinger. Sun Flower / Flower Sun.

1973. Original visual poem. Silk print on textile, embroidery, and mixed media. Amelia Etlinger (1933-1987), born Wanderer, started her activities as a visual poet, inspired by the poetry of E.E. Cummings. Initially, she created pure typewriter poems, but from the beginning of the 1970s, her work evolved from concrete words to her characteristic language of threads. She started using fabric, threads, costume jewellery, and all kinds of natural materials that she had collected in the woods behind her house.
