FIREWALKERS MAY ENTER
Welcome to an all-consuming art space where flames decipher ash poetics floating in our charred Anthropocene. Ashes to ashes... we are star dust. We are ash.

RED HOT REVIEWS
"Is the poet annealing these war words, or perhaps transmuting them into poetry? Or is the insinuating presence of war itself causing this language to combust? Complex, troubling and very beautiful visual poems in Maggs Vibo's Ashes to Ashes, published by Paper View Books."
Susie Campbell "Ashes to Ashes by Maggs Vibo, is rich in meanings, glowing in the eye, and smoldering in the heart. You can almost smell the ash and smoke." James Knight "Ashes, fragments, and fire come together to tell a story about war and loss." Astra Papachristodoulou "Ashes to Ashes is an analogue vispo series, meditating on language of war, perhaps on rituals of purification." Katy Wimhurst |
Those diseases which medicines do not cure, iron (the knife?) cures; those which iron cannot cure, fire cures; and those which fire cannot cure, are to be reckoned wholly incurable."
