Shadow Beings Rose Knapp

Shadow Beings is an exploration of individual consciousness. An exploration of the shadow self and the possibility of the existence of spiritual beings beyond the human. Part autofiction style poetry, part pure abstract expressionism, and part chaotic Dadaism, Shadow Beings synchronizes and distorts realms of mental illness, Gnostic mythologies, the nature of evil, psychedelic consciousness, and being trans. Shadow Beings takes a minimalist approach to poetic form, approaching short forms as just as expressive as longer or more narrative forms.
