Final Poem

A Tree  
The world a blur to most
Most see a tree as a tree
The day you actually see
When the world is not the same world
A tree is no longer a tree
A tree is something that bears fruit
A tree is something beautiful
Even in the harshest winds
A tree stands its ground
A tree with leaves of magestic green
No longer just a tree
But a tree that is a work of art
That is the day you see the world
That is the day the world comes into focus
That is the day you truly see the tree

Nicholas Kennedy Sitton- "Twisted"




*this one is my favorite!!!!!*




Interested in recreating these throughout Portland for one of my independent projects. Reminds me of David Hockney but computerized. I think it would be cool to recreate a few of these on photoshop, which is how Sitton twists his images, and also craft a few by hand. By printing the same image multiple times and morphing the image by cutting and pasting. These were all taken in San Francisco, if I were to recreate these in Portland, I would want to make it obvious to natives what city they were being taken in if they were on display. I think the hardest part of this project will be playing around with photoshop to discover how to recreate a similar project.
