'while Wright describes them as "fierce, feminist warriors", they strike me equally as the nightmarish hosts of a terrifying gender reveal party. If the aim is to scare, they work.' Susannah Thompson on @research_artist's Future Folk Archetypes The Portico Library corridor8.co.uk/article/lucy-w…

“I work at three different desks, with a different project open on each, let’s say, so one is academic, one writerly, and one art. I go at these erratically, sometimes to all three desks within an hour. They cross-pollinate one another.” —Anne Carson buff.ly/473SCd2

This November I’ll be facilitating this workshop, Archiving Smoke, with the brilliant the87press. We’ll read, discuss, and explore different poems, and think about archives and archival spaces together 🖤

TOMORROW! Don’t miss out! 🎟️ manchesterliteraturefestival.co.uk/events/richard…

Really enjoyed writing my first review for the brilliant Corridor8 & visiting this group show of work by women painters - 'The Pearls and the Oyster'. The pictures show work from the show by Nan Collantine and Jayne Simpson.
