Letters to Akilah is a performative lecture by artist Regina Agu in response to the work of late poet Akilah Oliver. Agu’s first encounter with Oliver’s work was the poetry collection A Toast in the House of Friends, which includes the essay “The Visible Unseen” that has served as a contextual home for Agu for many years. The program will include a range of responses to Oliver’s work, including texts, readings, images, and sound.
