WILD EARTH PROJECT


As part of my residency I’ve decided to team up with musician Arundel and the Edge and make a sound and word scape that sits in the walkways of the State Library of Queensland. It will be a 40 minute story of a woman’s journey from birth to death. It’s a really exciting project and Arundel and I have been talking about collaborating for years. So we are both looking forward to dong this together and the final product. WILD EARTH will be showcased for the month of February next year. So keep an ear out when your walking through the Library spaces, and check out the website we have set up for it here. We will be updating and putting heaps of fun stuff up on this as we go along. So sign up and be kept up to date! EXCITED!

POETIC TERRORISM WITHIN THE WALLS OF THE STATE LIBRARY OF QUEENSLAND 

So the lovely folks at the State Library of Queensland have let me attack their bookshelves. Thats right, yesterday I went in there and slipped a whole heap of pink glittery poems into unsuspecting books all over the library. The idea is that, when someone decides to go and read a book on say Margaret Thatcher, they open in up read it, become enthralled (hehehe) and then they turn the page and up pops one of my poems. On the back of the poem is a voucher to redeem a free coffee at the Library Cafe. So get into it! Go forth and read books, find pink glittery poems and drink free coffee. Now thats a whole lotta good there, right?
