This month, I am excited to announce the launch of Proxima Vera, a micropress of visual poetry, literary objects, and digital editions. It is a way make my one-of-a-kind fine press poetry broadsides and objects available for collectors, both private and institutional, to acquire these works. The site currently features new releases from the Planetaria series as well as broadsides created for Silent Anatomies. Each quarter, I seek to drop new work on the site that continues to play with boundaries of media, genre, and interactivity.

You can say that in establishing Proxima Vera, I’m creating a space where visual poetry finally comes of age.
