by Travis Nichols
This project was conceived for Chicago Artists Month, October 2009
Poets Joel Craig and Travis Nichols paired with video artists Kirsten Leenaars and Dean Rank to each create a collaborative piece translating the written word into visual art and vice versa. The videos were presented at the Hideout along with live phone calls from poet and sometimes translator Paul Killebrew, as well as Honorary Slovenian Consul in Chicago, John P. Vidmar, PhD.
