This component comprises a volume of ekphrastic poems followed by a theoretical
postscript. The poems were influenced either by individual works of art or by a
particular artist’s work in general. The postscript examines the nature of ekphrasis. It
also discusses the connection between my poems and the artworks that inspired them
relating this to existing ekphrastic theory and to my writing process. The poems
appear in a separate collection followed by reproductions of the relevant works.
