Punctum II is an 10 × 8 inch graphite drawing by Jennifer Seas, rendered on handmade abaca paper. Part of an evolving suite of works that catalogues poetry books dedicated to the artist’s mother, this drawing isolates the word “her” from a dedication page, alongside the author’s chosen punctuation.

Seas treats these quiet fragments as emotional touchpoints — reclaiming marginal, paratextual language as sites of reflection. With minimal yet precise mark-making, Punctum II transforms a single pronoun and punctuation mark into a meditation on relationality and poetic origin. The hand-drawn rendering captures the quiet intensity of a word often read and overlooked, giving it presence, intimacy, and permanence.

Unframed and ships flat.
