Chew the Bright Hysteria

by Rhondda Greig

Rhondda Greig's artistic eye guides her poetic perspective. The poetry lives in the greens and seasonal kaleidoscope of the Wairarapa, home throughout her adult life, and in the wintry greys of Scotland. As a painter and creator of public art works, Rhondda mobilises colour and form. As a poet she sculpts emotional, provocative events that arise in the human landscapes she inhabits, nearby and far away. Chew the Bright Hysteria marries Rhondda's driving desire to paint and reflect her world.
