Join comix artist and poet Mita Mahato for a poetry comix workshop in conjunction with the launch of her new book Arctic Play. Mahato will share her process in making the book as a jumping off point to guide folks in experimenting with poetic forms, color, and collage to make poetry comix of their own. No experience necessary!
3 p.m. Sunday, October 20, 2024
Quimby’s Bookstore, 1854 W. North Ave.
Free!
Arctic Play is a drama, a dirge, an expedition log, a series of poetic experiments, a comic book. Mapping an Arctic imaginary of beings and landforms onto a shifting stage of woven and layered papers, Mahato conjures geographic and creative uncertainty as the necessary condition for navigating the climate crisis and its sorrows.

“With a caring awareness, Mahato hints at the expansive possibilities of the comix medium—and the human experience.” ~ Lale Westvind, Grip
“Arctic Play is both wildly experimental and completely confident in how it inhabits poetry, comix, collage, weaving, and playwriting.” ~ Aidan Koch, Spiral and Other Stories


Mita Mahato is a comix artist and poet who assembles her panels and pages with cut and collaged papers. Her poetry comix have appeared in places including PRISM, Ecotone, Iterant, Shenandoah, Coast/NoCoast, ANMLY, and Drunken Boat, as well as in the collection In Between, published by Pleiades. She lives in Seattle.
