Visual poetry is poetry or art in which the visual arrangement of text, images, and symbols is important in conveying the intended effect of the work. It can be seen in advertisements, music videos, and fine art galleries. Most artistic inspiration evolves out of the circle of the artist`s own spiritual/emotional experiences and activities.
Participants are encouraged to bring their laptops and a selection of digital images (or objects that can be scanned, that matter personally, and that tell their own story). Participants are to use these elements to create their own editorial vision. Each creation is processed and outputted on 13` x 19` Fine Art Paper (8-color Epson UltraChrome).
