‘I’m unsure what school of poetry Simple Cells should come under. What I am certain of however is that it is excellent fun’ –The Journal
‘a stroll through the woods of language guided by a word-naturalist’ – Kennebec Journal
Simple Cells is a collection of visual, minimal, and found poems, as well as aphorisms and rhymes. Where Rutter’s previous collections reflected upon the meaning of landscape and place, Simple Cells re-imagines the short poem as a model of ecological interrelatedness, as each separate verse plays its part in an unfolding, organic whole. The brevity of the individual poems belies the broad scope of the collection, which takes in nature, science, popular culture and religion. Visual language combines with Joycean wordplay and snatches of song, while found texts emerge into poetry from a wide range of sources, including ‘a lost encyclopedia’, The New Scientist, and a local Tesco noticeboard.
About the Author
Mark Rutter was born in Singapore but grew up in the West Midlands and North East of England. He lived in Maine from 1990-2002, and two collections of his poems appeared during that time, The Farmhouse Voices (Puckerbrush Press) and water fir rook hand (Tatlin Books). It was in Maine that he first began working with printer and book-artist Walter Tisdale, and since then Rutter has published several collaborative artist’s books, along with hand-printed visual poems and illustrated broadsides. Rutter returned to England in 2002 to study for a doctorate in poetry and art at Southampton University. Bashō in Acadia (Flarestack Poets), appeared in 2014, and his new collectionSimple Cells draws together the series of visual and minimal poems which he has been writing for over a decade. Rutter’s prints and paintings have been exhibited in the US and UK, and his most recent collaborative artist’s book is Oorts Cloud (with printmaker Kate Dicker).
