Art Speaks is a collaboration between artist Mary Hatch and poet Elizabeth Kerlikowske as they explore the artistic relationships between visual and verse.

Mary sends Elizabeth two images, title-less; Elizabeth writes and returns. The title is shared only after the writing because that could be too influential. The titles frequently add another layer to the collaboration.

Emerald Unicorn Press
Book: 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.2 inches
80 pages, paperback.
