About me

Introduction	My name is Alex McKenzie and Poetry Seen in Lambley is part of my 'Creative Collaborations' MA at Nottingham Trent University's School of Art and Design. My course is entitled 'An exploration of poetry as a visual form' – and on it I am exploring the ways artists and poets have used poetry as a form of visual art. I also want, as a practitioner, to use poetic texts to create pieces of art that might encourage people – who might not necessarily seek out poetry – to engage with that particular artform.
