The object-poem " Wind Mind" by Arnaldo Antunes brings together two words that already have similar spelling and sound using visual and mechanical resources. The artist appropriates the vertical and inverted isomorphism of the letters M and W to compose the poem that arises from the activation of the object and the 180º rotation of this first initial isomorphic letter: " W ind M ind" – literal translation for the expression 'windhead'.
