Blackout poetry, born from the pages of existing text, transforms words into art by selectively blacking out or highlighting portions to reveal a new message or theme.This creative process challenges conventional notions of writing and encourages imaginative interpretation. Each creation is a testament to the artist's ability to find beauty and meaning in unexpected places, inspiring both the creator and the audience to see the world through a fresh perspective.
The Chambers Library called for submissions and the winning poem was awarded a $500 scholarship.
