Refractions
A refraction is defined as the visible alteration of light as it passes through a medium. We think of poetry—and the body, by extension—as a filter through which knowledge passes, and that we collect and shape the runoff into discrete pieces of writing, thinking, processing. Refractions, then, is a broad genre representing the realms of knowledge passed down from poet to poet, from body to body.
