This is my final calligram project. It is just an image of a girl lying down on grass. Her body and the few pieces of grass by her body are made up of poems by Rupi Kaur, from her book Milk and Honey. I felt that the poems, which are centered around dealing with frustration, loneliness and acceptance of failed relationships, fit perfectly with this body that is just lying in a thoughtful but also tiring pose. Furthermore, these poems personally man a lot for me, so I enjoyed using them for this project. I struggled with properly tracing the image and filling it up with words; it took me several days, many hours and a total of 4 complete redo's to get to this point.
