In response to the situations forced by the global pandemic, arts and kindness charity People United curated a series of reflections called Navigating with Kindness: A response to COVID-19 . The project enlisted contributions from a range of artists, researchers, creative industries professionals and more in an attempt to creatively capture this very unique moment in time.
For my contribution I created a poetry-film that captured my very personal experience of the lockdown period and aimed to provide a brief moment of calm for any audiences who encountered it.
After sharing my work across social media, Dom King got in touch and asked if I would discuss the work and project on his BBC show. We had a really rich discussion about art, creativity and the process of making the work and you can listen to the conversation interweaved with lines direct from my poem, above.
