Imagistic: Blurring the Lines
Event Information
Description
Stage: HODGE HALL
Writers respond to images by artists, with both artist and writer exploring the borders of prose and poetry, abstraction and the figurative. Philip Gross responds to artwork by Tig Sutton, Elizabeth Parker to work by Barbara Verhoeven, Carole Burns to drawings and paintings by Paul Edwards.
Imagistic: Blurring the Lines’ is a collaboration between three writers and three visual artists. The artists work with light and time - clear light filtered through a wooded landscape, time and distance, landscape glimpsed from a moving train and light filtered through textiles, moving across surfaces. Writers then respond to the visual work in a process of exploration and discovery which elicits new poetry – image and words in a kind of a call and response. On the day, the visual work will be shown at Cornerstone as the writers read their new poems – a translation from the language of image into the language of words.
Readings, projected images, accompanying exhibition.
Tickets for this event are also available on the door (£7.50)
