Please note that this is a 3-Session Workshop
Explore the possibilities of creative writing and develop new connections between visual art and the written word! Led by published poet and scholar Star Black, this 3-session literary workshop will focus on the idea of Ekphrasis, an ancient Greek term meaning “the use of detailed description of a work of visual art as a literary device”. Inspired by the works featured in Return to a Place By the Sea, participants will generate a series of creative texts detailing their unique experiences of selected works in the exhibition. Poets, writers, and anyone fascinated by the interweaving of art and literature is welcome to attend, no prior writing experience is needed!
