I died for beauty

Belles Lettres
Belles Lettres (beautiful letters) is an exploration of the visual language of poetry. By transforming the written words of poetry into choreographed kinetic performance the project seeks to expand typographical conventions of traditional published poetry. This film utilises the poetry of Emily Dickinson's (1862) I died for beauty, to explore the potential of paralinguistics and poetry as emotive narrative.
