I am an instrument in the shape
of a woman trying to translate pulsations
into images for the relief of the body
and the reconstruction of the mind.
—from "Planetarium", Adrienne Rich

VERSO / is a platform for emerging and seasoned practitioners, forming new spaces for the performance of literature and bringing otherwise static art, philosophy, or research to a live experience. It is a safe, open, and intimate environment for people to experiment with new work, perform for the first time, and create community with one another.
