WARNING: Collage poetry can be quite messy, and requires space. Collage poetry can also be addictive. Tools required: Paper/cardboard for background Double-sided tape/Glue Words – sourced from magazines, newspapers etc. There are a couple of different approaches to collage poetry and these can be swapped depending on your mood or aim in creating a collage poem. 1. FOUND POEM create a poem based on the words available to you scatter the words over the table, and allow the poem to emerge from the words. Consider the visual layout of the poem Collage poetry is not just about the text but about how the poem looks on the page. 1. THEMATIC Collect words along a similar theme and then use to create a poem. E.g ‘I said No’ – variations of the word ‘no’ were collected for weeks before the poem was created. Pregnant and paranoid just emerged when the word ‘pregnant’ kept showing up in my word collection. VISUAL PARAMETERS Construct your poem according to set visual parameters e.g The poem must be all black text. All red text. OTHER PARAMETERS Use text from only one source e.g one magazine, a pamphlet, a brochure. TECHNIQUE Have several poems on the go at the same time. If word doesn’t fit one poem, it may fit another. Play with the word order. Look for unusual word combinations Rearrange the layout a couple of times before you start committing the word to the background. Use good, strong, visual text Think about how it will reproduce if you photocopy it. Consider including images as part of your poem. MOST OF ALL, Have fun!

Assorted ripped up old books found in the trash with really crappy paper quality, assorted blue washi papers, Sugene's step mother-in-laws German letters, Mandy's treasure package boat, and Ebay used postage stamp. I covered the back with boat and fish postage stamps, and Mandy says the post office didn't even mark them!

About The Artwork This artwork is actually for a book I am currently writing (July 2023) about the process of re-claiming and living my authentic creativity and what this means to me. This week I was writing the introduction and felt inspired to make this art piece to accompany it because the story I share in that intro is really about realizing that despite all the things involved in being in business an an artist, I just want to make art.
