This felt like two poems circling one another-- one seeking connection-- and the other painfully, sadly oblivious.

“A Painting” works on many levels, but is primarily an abstract dramatic poem that seems to draw stylish inspiration from absurdist playwrights like Beckett and Ionesco. A man and woman, that could be a married couple or two sides of the same persona, engage in a conversation about the creative spark and about their divergent opinions of the relationship they share. An essay on art that works very well as a performance piece.
