Title

A Doll for Throwing, Advanced Reader´s Copy

Description

A Doll for Throwing draws from Bauhaus history and the life of photographer Lucia Moholy. Bang uses prose poems shaped like visual blocks, appropriates archival language, and blends image with text. This shows how Bang’s teaching prompts from The Elements of Style syllabus are not just exercises—they are reflections of her own creative praxis.
