Join WiVLA member, Katherine McDaniel, at our Rise Exhibit for a morning of Ekphrastic Poetry, inspired by our biennial juried exhibition.
An ekphrastic poem is a poem that describes or responds to a work of visual art, often a painting or sculpture.
It's more than just a description; it involves interpretation and reflection on the artwork, expanding its meaning through the poet's voice.
Bio: Katherine is the editor and founder of Synkroniciti, an online literary and visual arts magazine and artistic incubator. She is a twenty-year member of the Houston Grand Opera Chorus, a poet (published in Gleam: Journal of the Cadralor and commissioned by Houston Grand Opera for Houston Artists Respond), writer, and painter (shown at Art on the Avenue and The Hardy & Nance Studios). She also teaches creativity enhancing craft playdates and has taught at Houston Botanic Garden, for the Coastal Prairie Conservancy and for private parties.
