CHEN SHAM, Jorge. Transformative Dynamics of Water and Light in Atisbos de Luz by Bella Clara Ventura. Aisthesis [online]. 2011, n.50, pp. 189-201. ISSN 0718-7181.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-71812011000200010.

In Atisbos de luz (2007) the Colombian-Mexican poet Bella Clara Ventura invites the reader to ponder and appraise the transformative dynamics of light in relation to a fecund, flowing water. This is not only the key to enter a poetic world presented as an adventure of initiation into the luminosity of the cosmos, but it is also the first step in the journey of an aesthetic initiation through inquiry and reflection for comprehending the universe and poetic writing.
