Photopoetics: The Photo Remembers; Writing From Memory

Photopoetics: The Photo Remembers; Writing From Memory

A picture is worth a thousand words, but a poem distils them into a few that matter most.

Join us on Saturday, 27 September and time-travel through your lens in this generative, image-led poetry session, we’ll explore the connection between memory, imagination & sensory recall by starting with a photograph {physical or digital} that means something to you so you can learn how to translate what you see, & what you feel, into vivid, personal poetry. We’ll explore how image, memory & language intertwine to spark connection, insight & healing.

Behind every photograph is a story & a feeling worth revisiting. Whether it’s a family portrait, a blurred candid, or a snapshot of a forgotten street, each photo is a doorway to layered emotion, hidden story & poetic potential.
