SoftSpot

I have a poem based on christina leung's Pizza Tree in SoftSpot's newest online show, alongside Ben Estes, Mark Leidner, Ryan MacDonald, and many other great artists!

"SoftSpot is pleased to announce its latest show, (Un)Seen + (Un)Heard.

Art is about articulating things that lay outside the realm of normal language. For (Un)Seen + (Un)Heard, we chose twelve works by visual artists and twelve contemporary writers that explore the complex human experience. We randomly assigned each writer one of the visual works, and asked them to respond."
