Making Waves
In this 1972 concrete poem, Holt charts the presence of three different "selves" throughout her day: "feminist," "artist," and "mystic." In this work we catch a glimpse into Holt's character and and the intersection these three elements of herself. The three self-reflections begin their shifting rolls near 4 A.M. and converge back into a single line again at 10 P.M. Holt's characteristic method of thinking in systems to make the invisible tangible is at the core of Making Waves.
