Oculus: Poems by Sally Wen Mao

4.0

I will admit, there was a lot here that went right over my head, but what I did get was amazing. Her use of fragmented imagery kept me on my toes and painted a surrealist dreamscape in my head filled with history, representation, and digital surveillance. These poems weren’t always the easiest for me to connect to, but Sally Wen Mao’s skill is evident.
