We all burn bright till our wings are clipped

By  Dex Hannon 2022
Digital remix of the painting ‘I Clipped My own Wings and Fell through the Earth’ https://www.artsy.net/artwork/dex-hannon-i-clipped-my-own-wings-and-fell-through-the-earth The original painting is a visual interpretation of the poem bearing the same name by Dexuality Valentino. This poem is also a song by the duo DVEC, from the album Everybody’s Talking, Nobody’s Listening, released in July 2019. The poem explores the inevitability of mortality and thus questions the existence of humanity. The digital work is a continuation of the theme of youth and mortality.
