Come hear the fantastic poem + printmaking collaboration curated by @cineutopia and spearheaded by Val Sivilli for the @steamrollergroup come to life on River Union Stage. Super excited to hear my own "alight" interpreted by actors on the stage. I love my poems in other people's mouths ❤️ Saturday, 30 May, 7 p.m. in Milford, NJ!
When I made this it was an experiment and thought one day it would be of use. It has traveled with me to different workshops and studio spaces.
Well years later, it found a home in "The Mina Loy Project. Don't Put Me in a Box". A beautiful incubation and dream project for Vasiliki Katsarou. It feels appropriate to have a home there if even for a moment.
Maybe it's a start of a new kind of Revolution.

⭐️First shots from The Mina Loy Project!
So much dream work (and heavy lifting) was done—
So very grateful for the team of talents that has worked with me on this project including the stunning actors @abigaileforrester , Brian Campbell, and the committed & tireless videographer Tommy Gonzalez @ilich_0 .
❤️Grateful beyond words for the incomparable @ashara.shapiro and @art.wrkd who has made it her mission to provide a creative home for the Mina movie!
A deep bow of gratitude for creative sisterhood & a shared dedication to honoring our ancestors who stitched and cobbled and boxed and painted us into the world.
A mega ευχαριστώ to poet writer actor and dear friend @kalliopypaleos . Love & flowers also to @salem_hadeed and Roz Anderson Flood, for their grace & generosity. Thanks also to Newtown’s own Clint Flack’s @bootstrap_paradox_80 . Behind the scenes, a very special thanks to Lynne Shapiro for her extraordinary support. 🙏🙏 To my love, the indispensable Best Boy of my life, Tony Lutkus
The Mina Loy Project- a poetry film- directed by Vasiliki Katsarou (that’s me) - and a special project at @art.wrkd is looking for a couple of extras for May 2 in Newtown PA. Please DM for details.

One of the galleries at @artyardcenter in #frenchtown #nj has been completely transformed by our friends at @artatkingsoaks . This magnificent show of still lifes conjures a feeling of otherworldliness. Time here stands still in the presence of beauty. Bravo! ✨✨ If an imminent visit to Italy is not in the cards, head to @artyardcenter to experience this created world of quietude 🩵
It’s Women’s History Month and MINA LOY is a remarkable woman poet & artist to learn about & celebrate! There’s still time to join in The Mina Loy Project @art.wrkd for two March workshops March 7-8 and March 21-22. If you’re a performer with an abiding love of poetry, or a poet with an interest in performance & film, I’d like to hear from you— email at cineutopia (at) gmail (dot) com. In person in Bucks County PA.
Poet H.D. as filmmaker!
Such an inspiration to find this text in The Little Review Anthology that had been sitting on my bookshelf.
