Timeless Flow: A Willamette Calendar is the second collaboration of three artists: poet, Paulann Petersen; printmaker, Barbara Mason; and bookbinder, Laurie Weiss. The six poems collected in this book follow the changes of the seasons along the Willamette River in Oregon and are presented against the water movement through a palette of seasonal changes. The floating nature of the panels in this Hedi Kyle structure contribute to the feeling of movement of the water and its dynamic nature.
An excerpt:
SeptemberAlong the banks, tree leavessome of the rain—a bit of the rivercoming around,slanted down.Leaf-boat after leaf-boatgoing by under the bridge—autumn flotillasall sail to the north.
