Blog | Random Note: “Ants On A String Style” Visual Poetry |
I spent the day yesterday working on visual poetry and I’ve developed a new definition for what I’m doing: “Ants on a string style” visual poetry drawings. Words follow the contours of the drawn, painted,or engraved line in this style of visual poetry and may be seen as inhabiting the same line in a positive “upside” or negative “downside” manner. The words may be read linearly forwards or backwards, or in an alternating manner from positive to negative, etc. Examples of this style may be seen at Ubu-web, and at the Vortice Argentina website under my name.
