With artist and poet Caren Florance, you will choose a line or words from your poetry to create a text-based poster. On Saturday afternoon Caren will guide your digital typography, design and layout. On Sunday morning, you will paste up your posters in locations around the city.
Participants need to bring a laptop to this workshop. If you would like to participate and do not have a laptop of your own, contact poeticcitycbr@gmail.com.
Caren Florance works with text in many ways, from letterpress printing to art installations to happenings like the 2018 Contour 556 work Signs of Life. She teaches design, art and writing at UC. Her latest visual poetry work is Lost in Case (Cordite Books, 2019)
