Poetry. Original artwork by Mark Stephen Finein. "erica lewis uses the shifts and variables of perception as both an aesthetic and as a starting point for an exploration of the nature of individual responsibility in this world. CAMERA OBSCURA is a meditative philosophical poem. And yet at the same time it is also interestingly a very personal poem, one about the intimacy between artist and writer-viewer. And more than anything, it is beautiful, moving, richly complicating"--Juliana Spahr.
