Ecological Abstract Art on Covid 19 Theme” © Amefralb Ecoheal

 

Gospel

Don’t question the lips
that wilt the tongue
licking wetness in the mouth

the mystery of delight
prophesy of the birth
by salty swallowing

make new parables
with face mask surviving
one more gospel

Amefralb Ecoheal is an ecological artist living in South Boston “Before Covid time, I had been selected to exhibit my work at the Public Library Branch of South Boston for years, inside the ‘Artist of the Month’ Window. The theme of Covid 19 has intrigued my canvas with ideas, reflections and abstracting configurations.”
