Animal Bodies: Poetry Reading

Inspired by the exhibition Elana Herzog: Ripped, Tangled, and Frayed, this special evening features poets Brenda Coultas and Eleni Sikelianos reading works that explore themes of memory, repair, threads, and connection. The event celebrates Herzog’s collaborative project Animal Bodies and brings together two acclaimed writers whose work reflects many of the ideas explored in the exhibition. Sikelianos will read from her latest memoir, Memory Rehearsal (2026), which weaves together family history, art, and the legacy of master weaver Eva Palmer-Sikelianos.
