Michael Orr is an Atlanta-based visual poet and artist working in visual poetry (vispo), asemic writing, collage, illustration, and found poetry. He has been published internationally and also works as a mail artist and independent chapbook/zine publisher.
Visual poetry, often shortened to "vispo," is poetry in which the visual arrangement of text and image is essential to the work's meaning. It blends writing and visual art so that how a piece looks is as important as what it says.
Asemic writing is a form of wordless, open-semantic writing — it has the look and gesture of text but no fixed meaning, inviting readers to interpret it visually rather than read it literally. It's a core part of Michael Orr's practice.
His work has appeared internationally with publishers and journals including Timglaset Editions (Sweden), Paper View Books (Portugal), Simulacrum Press (Canada), Otoliths, IceFloe Press, Cutbow Quarterly, ctrl+v, Steel Incisors (UK), and Human/Kind Press.
Original art, stickers, and one-of-a-kind canvas prints are available through the Shop on michaelorr.org. For pieces marked "message for purchase," contact Michael directly through the site's contact form.
