September 13: Dexter Roberts Features at Stone Soup Poetry

Stone Soup Poetry meets every Wednesday online from 7:00-9:00 PM via Zoom. Stay tuned for updates on any future live gatherings. On September 13, Stone Soup Poetry welcomes back Dexter Roberts.

Dexter Roberts' interest in art began with comic books, which, spurred him to sketch draw and eventually paint. His art work consists of abstract, text, symbolic and symptomatic depictions, primarily dealing with perception, representation and language. Poems surfaced in Dexter's art upon recognizing that words also have the power of "splattering the mind with images." The painter-poet is from Guyana, South America and has lived in Boston most of his life.

Dexter Roberts has appeared in or has curated numerous art shows and poetry reading around Boston and Cambridge. He is working on his first book of poems, freestyle slave style, due out next year.

March 27- Dexter Roberts Presents - The Uncomfortable Habits to Change Habits

Stone Soup Poetry meets every Monday from 7-9 p.m. every Monday at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery at 541 Massachusetts Avenue in Central Square Cambridge, Massachusetts. On March 27th, we will experience both the words and the imagery of poet and artist Dexter Roberts, who will also be debuting his new art show at Out of The Blue this month under the subject "The Uncomfortable Habits to Change Habits."

Dexter Roberts: "I'm an artist. A painter, poet and scientist. The world is my school. The ideas, the thoughts and the cultural products that is distribute throughout society. Old philosophy books, comic books, game of thrones and kung fu flicks are my councilors. I like to talk, paint and write about love, sex, race, the universe, nature and language. In my paintings, as in my poetry, respecting style and form to appropriate degrees; I want the form, the language to melt away, revealing the main idea, the subject matter, the 'ghost' in the body of the art work.

"The poems that I will read, will, formally, and subject matter, be, a change from the customarily way of doing and being, and perhaps, causing, THE UNCOMFORTABLE, which invokes questions and answers."
