Marco Giovenale
three pages from Asemic Encyclopaedia

these three pages of my unending Asemic Encyclopaedia deal with the natural architecture of circles and spheres.

(real or unreal) nature is asemic too, and here is my interpretation of how verbovisual and ‘natural’ forms cross one another’s codes.

He's also a contributor of 'Or' (Otis College of Arts and Design, Los Angeles), http://poeticinvention.blogspot.com and other mags and sites. His most recent books of (linear) poems in Italian are In rebus (Zona, 2012) and Shelter (Donzelli, 2010).
