Exquisite Cadence
Working with a poem by Seattle’s Civic Poet, Jourdan Imani Keith, I developed and led a workshop with collaborator Rana San, that unpacked how poetry can exist as visual media and provided basic film instruction. The result was edited into a final collaborative video poem by digital artist Rachael Lang, and screened as part of the 2020 Cadence Video Poetry Festival.
Additionally, I curated a showcase of video poetry to be screened as part of a panel I presented at Pacific Northwest College of the Arts.
Winter Poetry Festival was two days that centered poetry across forms and mediums in a free festival of performances, interactive stations, screenings, poets’ market, workshops, and the opportunity to support some vibrant, up-and-coming voices in the region.
