Lilac Poem

2020 - 2023

​​

 

Lilac poem is a spatial poem hidden inside a Snapchat filter, seeking to create a shareable environment during lockdown in 2020. It's an experiment in creating a miniature virtual reality experience with common, more accessible technology. It was left behind on Snapchat for people to pick up accidentally as they scanned for face filters. It's probably still out there somewhere. It's about wanting to turn into a bush.

Lilac Poem was expanded into a mixed reality drag performance at Hyde Park Art Center in 2023, activating Edra Soto's exhibition "Destination/ El Destino: A Decade of GRAFT.".
