Consider a composer inspired by a portrait, or a painter trying to capture the essence of a poem: ekphrasis uses one kind of art as a springboard for another, extending an artist's ability to think both creatively and analytically. This session on ekphrastic prose will explore the evolving tradition of writing inspired by visual art. In collaboration with Spokane's Museum of Arts and Culture, we will use a how-to, hands-on, live-laboratory approach to model ekphrasis in real time, equipping audience members with the tools necessary to investigate the practice in their own work.
