Hidden Beauty
I love beautiful things,
And when I see
Something I want,
I cannot settle down
Until I own it.
And then I put it away,
So it will not get lost
Or damaged,
And never
Look at it again.
Aunt Evelyn’s Letters
New York City artist Barton Benes saved thousands of letters that his Aunt Evelyn, a Florida widow, wrote during their daily correspondence in the ’70s. Now he combines text from these breathless, driven, regret-filled pages with haunting images to make art about the unlived life.
