LA TOAN VINH BY DIANE

TRIBUTE TO RAY JOHNSON 1996

GALLERY OBSERVATOIRE 4 MONTRÉAL.

AVEC JEAN SIMONEAU MONTRÉAL...


🌷👉Drowning ou assimilation


I was looking at the sea

The brain in my heart was crackling

Over the waves, ô water and salt

Like my childhood days… Sky beauty

Over my skin… Humanity is born

With you... little man...

In such a pretty instant

I will never forget.

When I die in your eyes

Peaceful and blue

Ready for love.


Ce poème de Jean Simoneau a été envoyé à Ray Johnson, fondateur du New York Correspondent School of Art, avec l’illustration du peintre La Toan Vinh, de Montréal, en 1993.
