A tapestry inspired by Le hibou, a poem from Le Bestiaire, ou Cortège d‘Orphée (1911) by Guillaume Apollinaire - photo taken at the René Perrot exhibition in Aubusson
Mon pauvre cœur est un hibou
Qu‘on cloue, qu‘on décloue, qu‘on recloue.
De sang, d‘ardeur, il est à bout.
Tous ceux qui m‘aiment, je les loue.

My poor heart is an owl
That is nailed, unnailed, renailed.
I have run out of blood and energy.
I praise all those who love me.
