Plint DICHTER. | 2026

Over the years, I’ve often created illustrations for PLINT, usually inspired by existing poems. For the summer issue of DICHTER however, the roles were reversed. Nearly fifty poems by around forty poets were written in response to my illustrations.

It’s a very special experience to read these poems alongside the illustrations that inspired them. Seeing my illustrations transformed into words feels both inspiring and humbling.
