Ekphrastic Poetry - What do you see?

https://www.seatoskyreview.ca/november-2024-vol-5-issue-2

We’re very pleased to share with our readers this excellent collection of Ekphrastic Poetry. Each of these poets found inspiration in an image and, through their poetry, has gifted us something we might not have experienced otherwise. Elaine Katz’s story of Bathsheba and her terrible decision, Leah Wu’s breathtaking presentation of a headless and armless Winged Victory, Spencer Keene’s ode to a metal Tyrannosaurus, and Hugh Findlay’s mother walking the plaza in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. In each of these contributions, and all the others, we are able to not only meet the image, but the poets themselves as they reveal parts of their own stories in the writing. If you ever wondered what the point of Ekphrastic Poetry is, you have your answer in this issue of Sea to Sky Review 2024.

Also included for your enjoyment is The Transitory Space, a gallery of mesmerizing photos by Leah Oates, along with a review of Brian Michal Barbeito’s recent book of photography and prose.
