Make my peach a machete. / Since I never learned swords / could be fingernails or to / chain saw my teeth.
Lens Therapy is an interactive installation and collection experience by textile artist Colleen Rjc Bratton exploring color and perception. The piece includes a 20’x10’ quilt, color therapy glasses, sculptures, and a publication featuring poetry, narrative, and theory by writers responding to specific colors from the quilt. My poem, Weaponize, is in response to a peach color.
PERSONAL
A writer and curator exploring the liminal spaces of the literary arts. I am the author of two chapbooks and have fiction, reviews, and poetry published widely. My interest in how words can be experienced has led to solo work and collaborations to create installations, music performances, broadsides, karaoke, and video poetry. I founded and directed Till, a literary organization that offered an annual writing residency, and am currently co-director of Cadence Video Poetry Festival at Northwest Film Forum.
