For this exhibit, members of the Dwight-Englewood Writers (DEW) displayed QR codes that link to a web page presenting the art and a piece of writing inspired by it. Several writers, including Oriana Huang ’26, Grace Tomin ’26, and Asha Harker ’27, also read their poems aloud as part of the gallery reception this afternoon. “This type of writing, based on artwork, is a Greek tradition,” says Oriana.
