Language is the fundamental matter of writing, but it is not the only way for us to communicate in literature. We can create a multiplicity of meaning in our writing by using images along with words, even in a less evident genre like poetry. In so many recent publications, we see poets embracing this concept of multimodality and finding inventive ways to weave together words and pictures. In our kick-off panel for this year’s festival, authors Danny Caine, Carrie George, and Philip Metres will talk with moderator Kevin Latimer (GRVLND) about using IMAGE + TEXT to broaden the ways we express ourselves on the page.
Format: Panel
Presenters: Danny Caine, Carrie George, Philip Metres, Kevin Latimer
