Klee\u2019s statement attests to the crucial role spontaneity plays in sparking originality and creativity. A single piece of paper is a quiet space, a room perhaps, that offers limitless possibilities beyond text, beyond communicating factual information. The affecting textures of handmade paper elicit a more personal response which, when conjoined with visual elements, our visual vocabulary, expands aesthetic possibilities, and presents us with new forms and renderings for our poetry.<\/p>\n<p>In this workshop you will create collaged, printed, painted, and\/or stitched poems on handmade paper. We will begin with being introduced to a variety of examples of visual poetry, followed by gathering the various materials available to include in the final visual poem(s). Time will be given to creating small poems spontaneously, a part of which will be included in the final product(s).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday, March 14: Part 1<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday, March 21: Part 2<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Please note, this is a two-part workshop, and the activities in Part 2 build on what is created in Part 1.<\/p>\n<p>Spaces are limited.
