Poetry

We are never real historians, but always near poets, and our emotion is perhaps nothing but an expression of a poetry that was lost.

– Gaston Bachelard

Call and Response Round 2, Shoebox PR, April 2020

To keep artists in community during mandatory stay-at-home orders during the coronavirus pandemic, Shoebox PR created a virtual call-and-response project. I was paired with Los Angeles artist, Bibi Davidson. We spent two weeks sending art and poetry back and forth, each of us inspired by the other.
