Annette Sandrock
Annette I. Sandrock, resident of MV for over 30 years, published her first book of poetry, ‘Labyrinth’ (2019) in Portugal and is honored to be registered in the National Library of Portugal.
Labyrinth, exclusively containing her poetry and images of pruned treetops of Crete have taken on a life of their own, having been shown at Island libraries and virtually by PathwaysArts of Martha’s Vineyard as “an instrument to raise awareness of the personality and special sentience of trees, our companions and providers”.
Through manipulation of her photographs, Ms. Sandrock uniquely captures trees as embodying spirits and personality traits of humanity and animals. Her writing and poetry have appeared in several island anthologies as well as several Martha’s Vineyard publications.
Selected photos from 'Labyrinth' will be on display at the Tisbury COA October through November 2026.
