Candle Poems: An exhibition by Greg Thomas

Candle Poems is an exhibition of Thomas's original art works photographed for his publication of the same title in which he reimagines the concrete poem form in malleable liquid wax which echoes the flexuous lines on each object's surface.

He is the co-editor with Julie Johnstone of the 101 contributor poster-poem 101 Words for Edwin Morgan (Essence 2021).
