This summer, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to work on a collaborative poetry project with Columbia Poet Laureate Ed Madden. Along with a number of other local artists and writers, we were invited to respond to the recent Andy Warhol exhibit at the Columbia Museum of Art, with a focus on the theme of “Identity.” Ed and my project, “Solve for X,” focuses on gender identity and sexuality and takes the form of a wall-sized collaborative, collagistic poem and accompanying chapbook (including the individual poems we wrote and later used to create the collage).

Find out more about our take on the project and our process here, and come check out the exhibit through Sept. 27.
