Diana Magallón

Experimental Poetry, Visual Art, and Five Surviving Poems

Diana Magallón across four issues

Diana Magallón is a Mexican experimental artist whose work crosses poetry, visual composition, digital art, collage, and collaboration. Her writing often treats language as physical material: spacing, repetition, multilingual fragments, typographic shifts, sound, and image become part of the poem’s movement.

Four solo appearances survive in the historical record. Issue 22 preserves two poems, Issue 26 preserves three poems, Issue 30 records an entry titled “Poems,” and Issue 41 records three works of visual art.
