BAMPFA Presents: Visual Poem Workshop
August 4, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

What is poetry’s relationship with the visual world? In this workshop, we explore the intersections of language, image, and identity in creating a visual translation of a poem recited by special guest poet Donté Clark. Clark’s spoken-word performance will be our framework for embarking on a visual translation of his poetry. Each participant will create a collage guided by a stanza of the poem; these collages will be assembled into a larger mosaic, weaving together the visual narratives that emerge. The workshop will conclude with a brief reflection and discussion.
