So grateful to Datableed, and editors Juha and Eleanor, for publishing images of my hay(na)ku sculptures involving the circle and the line. You’ll notice that the shadowboxes are made of cartons (they usually carry my cases of dog food). That I recycled them into sculptures reflect the inspiration of Mel Vera Cruz’s artworks that recyle cardboard and cardboard boxes (relatedly, his 2017 such series will be North Fork Arts Projects’ March exhibition!). I’ve long wanted to make shadowbox art from a lot of emptied wine cases, some of which are quite fancy wood with etched images. But I kept that as an idea for years until I thought about the more mundane—more honest—utilitarian cardboard box. Thanks Mel for the inspiration!

Elsewhere, Claude Nguyen continues to create visual hay(na)ku magic! I particularly love this radiant work entitled "space debris":
