De Sobte

A fragment of the poem Els Amants by Vicent Andrés i Estellés (1924-1993). The poem is in Valencian, the sister language of Catalan known for the significance of its poetry.

The NFTs in this collection rewrite the poem word by word. I needed to rewrite it, claim it is my own. I fell profoundly in love and so left everything I knew to be true.

ELS AMANTS / THE LOVERS
