I am thrilled to have had my artwork and poetry published in the latest Poetry X Collage journal (Vol:2). This journal features the work of some of the many fantastic artists who I had the pleasure to meet during this years Poetry & Collage residency hosted online by the Kolaj Institute. What an experience, I learned a lot!!!
This journal features six pieces of my visual poetry “The Supposed Stranger” & “Lost”, “Monkey Business” & “Impotent Computational Rage”, “Ghost In Your Orbit” & “A Deeper Season”; plus one collaborative poem with the artist Rosemary Rae entitled “Some Days Flicker”.
For a statment by the publishers read below:
“PoetryXCollage is a printed journal of artwork and writing which operates at the intersection of poetry and collage. We are interested in 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.
Each issue presents six movements of work by artists and curators. Page spreads are meant to be free zones of thinking where the contributor has chosen all elements of the layout: font, image place, composition, etc.
The initial volumes were produced by participants in Kolaj Institute’s Poetry & Collage Residency in March 2022 and April 2022 under the direction of Christopher Kurts with support from Ric Kasini Kadour and Christopher Byrne.”
