Poem
1960
A dynamic composition of stamped wood elements arranged in rhythmic patterns that evoke the cadence and flow of written verse. Langlais employs his signature use of wood as both material and expressive tool, with the textured, repeated impressions creating a visual language reminiscent of words on a page. The work is completed by the artist's own painted wood frame, which functions as an integral part of the piece rather than a mere border.
