From Stone to Poem
A writing workshop to create a dialogue between poetry and minerals.
This workshop allows each participant to create a calligram based on one of the stone presented in the exhibition “Stone and Reveries: Poetry and Minerals of Roger Caillois”.
About the Course
Some minerals, sawn and polished, evoke landscapes, familiar or mysterious shapes. In this workshop, each participant reproduces the silhouette of their chosen stone, adding phrases or simple words to its contours to create a calligram.
After selecting a stone to represent, participants let their imagination run wild.
The first words are put down on paper. Using tracing paper, the contours of the stones are then traced, and the drawing starts to form.
Students leave the workshop with their creation.
