Everything, Desire is the convergence of fragments, fractures, strands and materials borne from and manufactured through the remnant forces of a a deeply layered landscape: the rings of Saturn appear deliberate and smooth from a distance yet their construct is a deep wave of broken elements, a sea of overlapping and evaporated forms.
I can comfortably call the eye driving these poems indefatigable. And it is an eye that drives, more than a mind, more even than a heart; Everything, Desire is a space for seen architecture, seen plastic art, seen bodies to grow into / being complicated bodies. - Joseph Spece
This asks if desire is truly a direction uncoupled from the aftermath of a bodied place. To perform this rune through its plurals, its fractals, its schematic hexes, its voluptuous amor fati as it cracks open the hourglass of its own critical intimacies. Owen’s work incarnates an elegant sharpness while plotting mini explosions throughout the cadence of its sprezzatura. - Scherezade Siobhan
