About

Christine Herzer is a poet and visual artist. Writing is at the heart of her artistic practice: writing as a physical act [handmade, irregular] and a way of producing meaning; how the gesture of writing, its materiality [color, for example] and the choice of surface [a window; paper; the floor] make visible spaces of otherness and engage viewers on a personal and somatic level; writing as a catalyst. She holds an MFA in Poetry from the Bennington Writing Seminars [Class of 2009]. Her third collection of poems, Orange, was published by Ugly Duckling Presse [Brooklyn, NY, USA] in 2018. Herzer lives and works in Paris.
