About this Event
With poet Monica Kim!
Visual poetry as a form can be a portal in reading and approaching poetry: a portal for queering language; a portal for exploring grief; a portal for building radical poetry outside of the Western norm. In this workshop, we will read visual poems by Douglas Kearney, Diana Khoi Nguyen, and George Abraham and discuss how the visual aspect of their poems work as portals. Building upon their work, we'll have time for a generative writing session with generative and revision-based prompts for participants to explore writing their own visual poems.
