Image and Text, Text as Image, and Image as Text: A Poetry Masterclass with Diana Khoi Nguyen
Saturday, October 11, 2025 , 2:00 – 3:30 p.m.
What is an image, and what can text entail? As an exploratory and interactive group, we will pay close attention to the nuances of these two words before excavating how they have been employed and evolved on the page over time. We will expand our original notions of these two crucial media, and how they can engage with each other. What happens at the intersection of image and text in creative work?
