This is the second of three art prints created for "Poetic. Aesthetic.: An Exploration of Creativity in Poetry and Visual Art" an exhibition presented by The Art Gallery at the University of Maryland.

The gallery paired together a Maryland poet with a national or international artist and each created three new works of art based on the poem(s) of the poet.

The medium of the works varied from paintings, drawings and screen-printed posters to sculptures, videos and installations.

Hero Design Studio created a set of three limited edition hand silkscreened prints based on poet Elizabeth Arnold's work entitled "Monster" from Effacement, which is a book-length sequence of poems.

Each print features the selection of Arnold's poem that inspired it.

This is a 2 color signed edition of 50 prints. Only 20 prints were available for purchase from Hero.

The copy featured at the bottom:

"The soldier dreamed he was a clay jar,
the kind shaped like a female body.

Had he been hit? He didn't know.
He stood in clay.

Spring came, but with the trees eviscerated, you could tell the Earth moved forward

only by the birds, the cold's
momentary incinerations."
