EBON HEATH: VISUAL POETRY

Posted in top story


Ebon Heath, is showing a lot of chutzpa as one of the emerging artists of the moment. His “visual poetry” pieces take typography to a completely different level, re-interpreting the way we look at words and language and are just really fun to look at. Check out some of Heath’s work or read what he has to say about it below:

When I close my eyes i can see the words of great poets like Rakem or Tupac flying thru the air and dancing with the same physicality my body instinctually feels. In the content of hip hop is a verbal dance between the MC and words, my work hopes to capture that dynamic flexibility found in bending, twisting, and chopping the language to reflect its content
