Visual Poetry by Drew B. David

Drew B. David

I’m interested in pushing the envelope, if that’s possible in this day & age. I’ve been most influenced by the visionary genius, Dick Higgins, a major pioneer of the intermedia aesthetic. As such, I am into mixed media/collage. I believe the future of poetry/narrative/prose/what have you will be a mixture of the visual and textual, because textual narrative (prose or verse) alone has no (experimental) future; the modernists (and post-modernists) killed off that possibility long ago. Perhaps, then, this hybrid form is a way forward.
