Blackout Text

Blackout Text, also known as blackout poetry, involves selecting words or phrases from an existing text—like a newspaper or book—and then shading or blacking out the remaining parts. This process transforms the original text into a new, often poetic, piece by highlighting the chosen words, which can create new meanings or stories. It's a creative way to reuse existing material to produce art or poetry, emphasizing certain ideas while obscuring others. The result is a unique collage of language that invites interpretation and personal insight.
