Poetry, chapbook, 24 pages, from Bottlecap Features.

Each poem in this collection does not fit into a theme but rather is a reflection of a memory that arose a transforming realization. Here you will look through my lens and see things you haven't before or rather you may see a part of yourself. Reflecting on your own memories, taking a deeper dive into your own mind.

In my chapbook Shadow of Memories the depths of human emotion through experiences are depicted by the simplicities of everyday life. The revelations found through the nature we inhibit, through our daily routine of rising and falling are explored visually. Letting your senses take you back to a place of familiarity, understanding how your past shapes who you are in the present.

Mia Bego is a writer and visual artist based in New York City who is studying at Parsons School of Design. She is a first-generation American of Serbian descent. Growing up with an untraditional upbringing as she frequently moved throughout her childhood from Montenegro, Serbia, Chicago, Florida and LA she clinged to art and writing. Paper and pen became a grounding point in the chaos that surrounded her, as it was always the most reliable. She has found comfort in the chaos of the nightlife scene in NYC but always revolts to her paper afterwards. She focuses on self reflection bringing feelings to life through visual surrealism. Connection with oneself and community is of great importance to her. She has been commissioned to paint murals in her community dedicated to Native American Tribes and for personal homes. She has shared her writing and artistic journey through her community and social media. This is her first published chapbook and is just the beginning of her fruitful writing that is being brought to light.
