‘Would That: Transmutation, Transformation, and Tracing the Lines of Possibility’: An evening with poet Diana Khoi Nguyen

Join poet and multimedia artist Diana Khoi Nguyen for a talk about life, grief, and poetry as a way of being in the world. Diana will share the video and poetry work she has created since the death of her brother, and discuss its evolution as her grief has progressed with time. “Would That is a project which includes poetry, drama, and multimedia work (videos, site installations), where the impulse for discovery stems from thinking about possibility In material practice, I return to archives: family photographs and videos, but also the archive of my parents (their family photographs and videos)."
