Dorina Harangus's Redacted Asemic Rorschach Tests

[Thom Courcelle]

I saw these beauties in the photo gallery when Dorina has posted them, and was verily impressed with them. And sweetness that she is, she gifted them to me through the mail. They are just as astonishing and lovely in person.

I had not realized, however, that they were REVERSIBLE! And on the flip side of each piece was a complete other set...

The asemics themselves are quite elegant, and I don't know why I think it's so much more brilliant that they are redacted. Maybe there's an added mystery to them...that the poet was too embarrassed by the intimacy of her words, and needed to hide them...it's sort of like the piece is blushing.

And the puzzle design looks very geographic...like those sheets in grade school that you had to color in for history or geography class. Dorina has created a beautiful world map of her own imagination.  So honored to have received them.

And they came in a business window envelope, so that the postal workers could get a glimpse of the magic as it traveled on its way...

I love the miniature tarot stickers/ephemera in the upper left corner, too! (The Emperor and The Hermit.) It's all just beautiful, Dorina. Thank you for you mail art.
