Event Type
Christopher Kurts will lead artists and poets through an exercise of call and response that explores the intersection of collage and poetry. Utilizing an expansive supply of collage materials from the Mystic Krewe of Scissors & Glue (@neworleanscollage), a collage collective in New Orleans, workshop attendees will start by making a twenty-minute collage. They will then pass their collages to the person next in order for them to write a poem inspired by or meant to juxtapose with the collage. Those poems will then be passed on to the next person to make a collage that will in turn be the inspiration for a final poem. This workshop would be an extension of the PoetryXCollage project started by Kolaj Institute in 2022. You can read more about it here: https://kolajinstitute.org/poetryxcollage/
