About this Event
Participants are invited to bring an image, photo or artwork that means something to them. Together we'll explore ways that the poem can translate (rather than describe) the atmosphere, texture and emotion of an image. We'll look at work by Victoria Chang, Cameron Awkward Rich and others during the session. Workshop open to all, no previous writing experience is necessary. There will also be some images available for people to choose from on the day.
