ACREAGE, a chapbook by Stephanie Garon (published by Akinoga Press December 2021) ACREAGE functions as a companion to Stephanie’s art, translating the visuals and experience  of her work into language. In fact, as a part of her process, a number of poems in the collection  were written during the creation of the pieces they share their names with. Many of the poems  are also experimental, playing with the space and grammar to evoke and compliment what  one would encounter at Stephanie’s installations. 

​ACREAGE is vast, contemplative, and evocative, drawing out both the natural and sculptural  world into the realm of language. But, even language has to bend, and in some cases break, to  accommodate what has habitually existed beyond its grasp, and Stephanie wields and welds it  back together like a pro. If you have ever wondered what it would look like if Andy Goldsworthy  wrote poetry, ACREAGE is the answer.

"Garon employs decaying natural artifacts primarily as symbols of humanity's fragility. But her contrasts of hard and soft intrigue the eye as well as the mind." -Mark Jenkins, The Washington Post
