Residency: Poetry & Collage hosted by the Kolaj Institute - March 2022

🔸🔹🔸POETRY & COLLAGE RESIDENCY - MARCH 2022🔸🔹🔸

I am absolutely delighted to have been accepted to take part in the Kolaj Intitute's Poetry & Collage Online Residency hosted by the illustrious Kolaj Magazine over the course of March.

If you follow my work you will know that I really enjoy to pair visual work with both poetry and short stories. I am really excited to take part in this programme over the course of March, to meet the other international artists, writers and poets, listen to their perspectives and see their work; and of course to learn new things about the vibrant intersection between the written word and visual art.

The organisers have this to say:
"It says something that in the Poetry Foundation’s Glossary of Poetic Terms, “collage” is one of the few visual art terms they define. Perhaps this is because so many poets have also been collage artists.

This project-driven residency is open to artists and poets. Participants will work together to investigate the intersection of collage and poetry by exploring concepts of found poetry, blackout poetry, collage poems, haikus, centos, response collages, response poems, word scrambles, concrete poetry, scatter collage poems, and other poems and artwork that inhabit this world. Together we will create working definitions and document techniques."
