Ekphrastic Writing (Virtual)

Ekphrastic writing and artistic response are not merely descriptions of existing visual art, but forms of character expression that often inform the literary worlds we’re building. In this craft talk, we’ll look at how real human speakers and our fictional characters respond to visual and sensual experiences on the page. We’ll examine how details, descriptions, and objects included in our written scenes represent a type of literary exhibition curated for readers in hopes of provoking effects similar to the reactions one might have to great art.
