Ex-Spec Po Presents 13 Faces of Eve by Maxima Kahn

Poetics: I believe all art is an experiment, regardless of style. My art-making in multiple media—writing, music, dance—is informed by a love of improvisation, play, experimentation, wildness, and by the interplay of questions and ideas with felt experience. I’m obsessed with beauty, wherever we may find it or however we might make it, and I prefer to leave open-endness on the page, rather than to lay out everything for the reader. I try on many voices, styles and forms in my work, tending most strongly toward the lyrical. I do rely heavily on freewriting and free association, as well as a number of game-like practices, to provoke the most imaginative and true work I can muster. My work seeks to mirror how life is experienced internally, at least by me, which I find to be largely non-linear and non-narrative.
