Shmehara Paperback
Shmehara, a debut collection of poems, takes you on a very personal and transformative journey. In Shmehara the written word, visual art, and animation are fused together.
This immersive multimedia project shows a flow of artistic vision and gives you a transformative, one-of-a-kind experience. You will run your fingers through the scars on the author’s soul and feel pain, sorrow, and outrage. You will also find solace and empowerment. And you will experience pure joy in watching (and endlessly rewatching) Dynamic Illustrations™. If you appreciate cutting-edge art, which addresses existential issues this is a must-read, must-watch experience.
Shmehara is a multi-layered book. In its core there are 21 thought-provoking poems. Each poem is accompanied by an author's note describing creative process behind the poem. In addition, each poem comes with an illustration, as well as thoughts of an artist creating the illustration describing their work on that illustration. This way we show a flow of creativity from one artist to another.
On top of that, you can access an animated version of the illustration, called Dynamic Illustration™, by clicking on a QR code located next to the illustration. When watching Dynamic Illustration™ makes sure the volume on your device is up, so you can enjoy a unique soundtrack created for each Illustration. Dynamic Illustrations™ are similar to short, animated films. You can see some still images from each dynamic illustration in the poster product section.
Foreword is written by brilliant Steven Komarnyckyj, a UK-born distinguished British-Ukrainian writer, linguist, poet, translator, and a recipient of English PEN awards.
10% of sales go toward a humanitarian organization helping Ukrainian children refugees.
