What happens when two artists—one a celebrated visual artist and animator, the other an award-winning writer and poet—decide to create without rules, restrictions or expectations? The answer is “The InkLine Project,” a new collaboration between Cape Cod’s Jackie Reeves and Lauren Wolk that blends visual art, animation, poetry and music into a series of short films.

It all began with a single email. On December 16, 2024, Ms. Reeves reached out to Ms. Wolk with a spark of an idea: “I’m working on a drawing series that I’m going to try to animate. I’d love to have music and a poem being read as a soundtrack to something like this. Or maybe a short story. Would you be interested in collaborating?”
