Waterspout

VENICE

Our love is like a waterspout
We don't belong
But cling
Wind and water-strong

Our love is like a waterspout
We hold to a form
Perpetual bond
Perpetual storm


Suzy Malcolm

"Larissa's wonderful free form glass sculptures are colourful and sensual and have inspired me to write poems to her art."

Aristocratic, defiant, ageing mistress of the Adriatic, elegant still, her imperious look defying the ravages of time and history.  Cold as dawn, sharp as glass, rich with privilege she carries in her bones renaissance memories, of palaces and princes.  Secreted behind a crumbling facade, enlivened by pink glass, she is vulnerable to the sea that once brought her silk, spices and all the perfumes of Arabia.

Joyce Goodwin

"[W]ith my Venetian memory, [I] am transported to a place of pink glass and palaces."
