How can we honor and incorporate our unique, beautiful bodies into our poetic/artistic practice? Together with choreic poet and 2025 Artist-in-Residence Latif Askia Ba, we will listen, read, and practice with the work of Larry Eigner, a 20th Century poet with cerebral palsy. We will practice being present in our bodies to express our intuitive selves in our work.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Latif Askia Ba is a choreic poet. Dancing in and out of various forms, he tries again and again to realize the music of the disabled body-mind-universe. You can find his work in Poetry Magazine and Poem-a-Day. His newest collection, The Choreic Period, was published by Milkweed Editions.
