the space between^words curating the encounter between writing and performance |
Beginning in 2006^ with an Arts Council-funded research project which culminated in the symposium, Writing Encounters, the space between^words is an international collaborative network engaging with writing across the expanded field of literature, art and performance – including artists working with text, visual and language poetry, digital writing, performance, theatre, film, music and dance. Rooted in a strongly feminist ethos, its aim is to connect writing artists and to host new collaborative projects and events. In September 2008, the space between^words partnered with York St. John University to curate and produce Writing Encounters. Information about Writing Encounters can be found here^. You can find the programme and profiles of contributing artists here^. the space between^words is now developing as a fluid network of associates. In 2008/2009 we will be hosting two projects to foster writing and generate artist-to-artist dialogue and support: a web-forum: The Travelling Conversation and Four Bare Walls: an artist-to-artist space-exchange. the space between^words situates itself within a context of other artist-led curatorial projects. Links to some of these can be found on our associates^ page. If you are interested in part of the network, just want to know more, get on the growing email list or propose a project, please register with the site here^ or email us via the contact page here^.
