About the event

HOSTED BY COWICHAN VALLEY ARTS COUNCIL: https://cowichanvalleyartscouncil.ca/event/ekphrastic-reversed/

As a way to mix our media, CVAC has asked 12 well-known poets to compose poems on themes of isolation and invigoration. And now we are asking member artists to register to paint their interpretations of poems. The results will be included in a printed catalogue and also displayed in the art show.

It’s a variation on the popular Word and Vision event that CVAC last organized in 2015.

Art: Any two or three- dimensional medium (including photography, mixed media, sculpture, etc.) Fee: $30 per poem (sign up for a maximum of 2 poems) Maximum size: 24 by 36 inches (including frame) Deadline to enter: As soon as possible!

Signup deadline: Oct.15, 2022

Submit your art by Jan. 15, 2023
