Interior with Poplar

Words, images, landscape, and soil — these are the materials of Leatha Kendrick's work.

Drawing, painting, and photography shape her writing practice, and she is drawn to the tension between mediums: what is lost in translation, and what might be gained.

In her latest collection, Interior with Poplar, she renders aging as both shadow and light, writing toward resilience.

Leatha welcomes invitations for readings, interviews, and conversations about her work.
