FIFTH ANNUAL VISPO CONTEST

​

​

​​

Judges: Shloka Shankar & Robin Smith

​

We can hardly believe we've wrapped up our fifth edition! Thank you to all the artists who took the time to send us a total of 80 visual poems this year. It was a delight to see the varied responses to what constitutes visual poetry and how each poet tried to blur the boundaries with their work. We are grateful for your participation and would like to congratulate our winners for helping us showcase such an eclectic selection.   ​​​​​
