2/2012 Co-Creator of Poetry and Art Installation with artist Angela Canada Hopkins entitled “Cardiac Cells” in the first Love and Light Show, in Loveland, Colorado, in 2011.
7/2012 Creator of a poetry performance at the Loveland Museum, which responded to the artistic works of Robin Dodge, entitled “Inspired.” This included thirteen area poets. Robin Dodge created works inspired by the great masters of the past. The poets were tasked to create poems in response to her paintings using influence from a poet who lived at the time of the great master. The museum published a book of poetry and art entitled “Inspired” around this show. This included three of my poems. There is a DVD of this performance available.
9/2013 Installation of my poetry in ‘In the Meantime Gallery.’ My installation was my poetic response to my collection of local Loveland Art. I was awarded a portion of a National Endowment for the Arts Grant by ‘In the Meantime Gallery‘ and ‘Art Space,’ This was to create and publish a book around this installation entitled: Art as Metaphor, Analogy and Allegory. Included in this book is the artists’ statements of inspiration for their work. An Audio CD of my poetry accompanies the sale of the book.
9/2013 Creator of the very first of a hopefully Annual “Loveland Loves Literature Festival.” The first of which included about fifty forms of literature from Shakespeare to original local lyricists to local high school exchange students reading the poetry of their country. I am planning in 2014 to include the Public Library staff and a small committee of local writers to plan future festivals.
10/2013 Co-creator with artist Fran Judd of a combined show at Art Works where we responded to one another’s work in an innovative installation entitled ‘Evocation.’ In this installation, poetry is featured in a whole new way, both visual and auditory.
