Book Description
Armed only with his poetic sensibility, Petr Král sets out to explore our relationship with the places that we inhabit, and with the apparently unremarkable everyday objects which often inform and enrich our lives. Král bears witness to Flaubert's observation that "in order for something to become interesting, we simply have to look at it for a long time". He reveals, not only the inner life-the very essence-of mundane objects and places, but also simple yet profound truths about ourselves.

Book Description
A delightful feat by an imaginative subconscious, this book is an assembly of poetry inspired by different women the author encountered while searching for his life companion. The poems have a coherent theme, which is the appreciation of feminine attributes and beauty. A deeper understanding of the poet's motivation emerges by reading the verses successively. The book climaxes with a narration of an enlightening epiphany into the inner nature and source of attraction to feminine beauty, (with glossary).

Book Description
"To understand the world, you must first understand a place like Mississippi." William Faulkner. My whole life has been comprised of searching for my sense of place, my personal heritage and culture. That search has taken me all over this country and half way around the world only to come back home to the hill country of north Mississippi. I have always found beauty, comfort, and peacefulness in the unpredictable, sometimes wild landscape of this place; it is part of my identity and provides a history of where I have been and where and who I am. The resulting images are a spontaneous intuitive discovery or rediscovery of a constructed visual idea communicating a relationship between change and continuity. My work is the essence of changing properties that relate to the passage of time, erosion, and changing of the seasons. There is an obvious tension between rest and movement, past and present. The translucent qualities of some layers reveal aspects of the print's history or its beginnings. At other times, the past is hidden and covered up. There is a focus on process and composition, allowing the process an active role and voice. My prints are a visual expression of my sense of place laced with personal experiences.
