Produktbeschreibung
Artwords is precisely that. Art and words combined to form a fusion of art and literature. This work is composed of colorful literary artworks consisting of calligrams, photographs, and redactive poetry. They are different forms of writing which can be both read and appreciated visually. Words have power. Words form images. But what if they formed images you could see with your eyes? Being both an artist and a writer, has led Beatriz Robles to want to create literature that could be seen as artwork as well. Coming from her second book, A Sensual World: What do you see?, the style of writing in Artwords takes it one step further as the writing itself becomes the art. They are one. Artwords is painting with words. It's taking a pair of scissors and making them a little more interesting, transforming it into literary art. And that was the genesis for Artwords- a book for everyone, for art lovers and readers; a book not just for your mind but for your eyes as well. "The prose of Bea Robles teases us into thought with its rich layers of meaning. The reader will be rewarded with this imaginative combination of illustration and prose. "Danton Remoto, author of Riverrun, on Robles' second book, A Sensual World: What do you see? "Enchanting images systematically embellish the book, serving as unravelling of meanings or purposes." Edgar O. Cruz, Daily Tribune, on Robles' second book, A Sensual World: What do you see? "Robles is not always serious. Her stream-of-consciousness has naughty turns...sections end a la O. Henry. Unexpected...The sections are accompanied/depicted with photos which she herself took, including her own paintings." Paul Blanco Zafaralla, Manila Bulletin, on Robles' first book, Life through Letters Her artwork has been described to have a "disarming quality that by turns is soothing, hypnotic, mesmerizing." Gino Dormiendo, The Philippine Daily Inquirer

Autorenporträt
Art, whether it's writing, painting, experimenting with photography, or playing the clarinet is second nature to Beatriz Robles. Bea has always enjoyed churning out metaphors as natural as whistling classical tunes and dabbling in colors and shapes on paper. She draws from a mixed cultural background, growing up in the "garden state" of New Jersey and graduating in the Philippines with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, Major in Creative Writing, from Ateneo de Manila University. Being a freelance writer, contributing to several magazines, has given her some free time to travel to pursue her other interests-painting and music. She has had several solo art exhibitions in the Philippines and has performed classical clarinet pieces for group shows in Europe and Asia. Her favorite things include a good book, a pencil, and her clarinet.
