Imaginary Meadow

Spring 2022

Our 5th zine exchange, Imaginary Meadow, was inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke’s The Wait. It included 4 online workshops and 51 contributors. It was supported by the University of Georgia’s Idea Lab Mini Grant and a Design Emporium WONDER Grant.

Imaginary Meadow zines can be found online here and in the University of Georgia Art Library’s zine collection.

It is life in slow motion,
it's the heart in reverse,
it's a hope-and-a-half:
too much and too little at once.

It's a train that suddenly
stops with no station around,
and we can hear the cricket,
and, leaning out the carriage

door, we vainly contemplate
a wind we feel that stirs
the blooming meadows, the meadows
made imaginary by this stop.
