Still Waters. The Poetry of P. K. Page

Description

Patricia Kathleen Page, commonly known as P. K. Page, was a Canadian artist and the author of more than 30 published books of fiction, poetry, travel diaries, essays, children's books, and an autobiography. Her visual art has been exhibited at a number of galleries in and out of Canada. Still Waters: The Poetry of P. K. Page encapsulates the varied life of the woman who reached international stature as both a painter and a poet. Her imagistic brilliance is explored here through the multiple places of her life and the several forms of her art. This classic film shows how the powerful works of P. K. Page extend beyond literature and painting into the realms of anthropology and ecology.
