Questioning Partitions

Daniella’s portfolio is comprised of poems from the Poetry Lyric, Alternative Practice and Dissertation module. The themes of race relations, identity and art proliferates the body of work. Internal rhyme is used in a number of poems to aid the flow, others use alliteration and assonance to create a subtle sense of movement. Daniella aims to show the importance of everyday activities and observations which speak to the social climate of the twenty-first century. In the last year Daniella’s poetry has been influenced by Terrance Hayes poem ‘The Golden Shovel’ and his poetry collection ‘American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin’, Claudia Rankine’s ‘Citizen’ and the work of Eileen Myles. Daniella would like readers to gain a greater insight into the challenges faced by under-represented groups.
