C22 C22 (Collective 22) is an
artistic collective focusing on experimental writing. Our work is influenced by
Dada, Surrealism, the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poets, Futurism and other pockets of the
avant garde. We are a small group aiming towards expression rather than
commercialism. Each member is free to create art as they wish, to collaborate
if they wish, and to publish work elsewhere should they choose. It’s all about
creative freedom and sharing our passion for experimentation. Who we are:
