Hello! Welcome to my portfolio. I'm Ane Marcussen Erézué, Danish illustrator and writer based in Luxembourg. I write poems, children's stories, articles and portraits. I illustrate for all ages and create poetic paper artworks. You can see all of that if you scroll a bit further. Enjoy!
Water
Water, water, water
Deep, angry, beautiful water
Blue, icy, cascading water
Clean, swimming, liquid water
Cold, wavy, bubbly water
Hot, boiling, evaporating water
Water, water, water
-Ane Marcussen Erézué
At home in love
Carrying my roots as the train of a dress
Lost and full of wonder
Like a beach pebble laid on the forest floor
Amongst humus, fairies and storms
Spinning at intermittent crossroads
With chatter from distant languages
I close the gate to my little fortress
A silhouette against a yellow curtain
A flash of a green plush fish
A clay figurine made from tiny hands
Words whispered in a warm breath
Intangible objects floating through time
Placed like breadcrumbs
Leading me into the unknown
To a new fragility
I feel at home in love
-Ane Marcussen Erézué
Waves
I measure life in waves.
Some calm and quiet like lullabies,
Some insisting and pushing for my attention,
Some come by surprise, make me fall and flow along,
Some massive, frightening and invasive like never ending nightmares.
In constant movement, in constant change, I live by the rhythm of waves.
-Ane Marcussen Erézué
A specK of light
through time
I am
A speck of light
Floating
Aimlessly through time
I am
And that’s enough
I am days
Years gone and coming
A speck of light
Through time
I am
And that’s enough
-Ane Marcussen Erézué
Sweet dreams, Dreamy Doodle
Close your eyes, I'll sing you a tune
Of places that hold you through the night
Sweet dreams, dreamy doodle, see you soon,
I'm with you always, sleep tight
-Ane Marcussen Erézué
Winter haikus
One.
Thousand frosty bells
Playing in the howling wind
The winteress’ tune
Two.
Heavy walking boots
Covered in dark humid soil
The warm winter womb
Nature tickles all my senses,
Makes me feel like me,
Laugh and shine, a human sun,
Joyful, round and free
- Ane Marcussen Erézué
