<strong>The</strong> concept<br />
<strong>The</strong> various poems-in-images presented here belong to the type <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>poetry</strong> called Macro<strong>poetry</strong>.<br />
Macro<strong>poetry</strong> is an artistic concept having emerged during the 2010’s.<br />
It was/is an poetic movement born on internet and social media, most <strong>of</strong><br />
all tumblr and instagram, based on poems written on digital<br />
photographies, a sort <strong>of</strong> a modern ut picturia poesis.<br />
Sometimes there is no writings, the poem is simply an assembly <strong>of</strong><br />
various partially cut images, creating <strong>by</strong> themselves a poetic<br />
story/scene.<br />
If you want to explore macro<strong>poetry</strong>, you can read or buy the book<br />
“MACRO : An Anthology <strong>of</strong> Image Macros”, created <strong>by</strong> Michael Hessel-<br />
Mial and Penny Goring, and published <strong>by</strong> Boost House (2016).<br />
You will discover various artists working on that type <strong>of</strong> modern <strong>poetry</strong><br />
(among the poems, you will find my macropoem “Metamodernist<br />
Pyramid”)<br />
You can read an interesting review <strong>of</strong> the book, here :<br />
