Opening on Friday, September 9th as part of the Writers and Books Artist in Residence Program, APP Professor and Poet, Kathy Engel will present Eyechart, a collaborative exhibit with artist Ellen Driscoll.

Joanne McFarland, the Artistic Director of Artpoetica writes, “Eyechart gives the reader a sense of what can ground us in times of extraordinary  uncertainty. At this historic moment, Engel and Driscoll’s sensibilities are distilled down  to their purest essence. The experience and willpower they bring to Eyechart spring  from deep reservoirs of commitment and a determination to celebrate each moment of  connection as a victory over despair. Their finely wrought salute to the creative process elucidates how much we gain when we face what is most fraught within us. At  our most fragile we can choose to be most open, and perhaps discover new ways to measure the breadth of our existences.”
