Inspired by Canticle of the Birds, this workshop centres Latinx and Latin American voices within a shared space of language, migration, and imagination.
Responding to Michaela McMillan’s sculptural birds and Mike Collier’s moving-image work, participants will write across Spanish, Portuguese, English, and Indigenous languages—exploring how stories travel, transform, and take root in new contexts.
Through collaborative exercises in translation and re-writing, we’ll reflect on identity, diaspora, and collective voice—like a flock in motion, where each language reshapes the journey.
This workshop will be led by poet and translator Leo Boix, a British Latinx poet writing in Spanish and English, whose work explores queer identity, migration, gender and cultural translation through lyric intensity and visual imagination. He is the author of Southernmost: Sonnets and Ballad of a Happy Immigrant.
All levels welcome.
