About this series

The collection "Becomings" is the second of two collections of Joyce Shintani's poetry.

Written between 1983-2021, Shintani's central concerns are on full display: questions concerning identity, spirituality, creativity, and art. The collection reflects a lifetime of self-examination and experimentation. In these poems and fragments, Shintani explores how the self (and our multiple 'selves') creates and shapes itself through art, while also being shaped and created by the world. This is a collection as much about self-exploration and self-expression as it is about the material conditions of Los Angeles, Stuttgart, and Paris, the locations where these poems were written and that influenced Shintani as writer.
