'I was very pleased to work recently with Katrina Naomi. As Director of Art Writing at Goldsmiths College, I invited Katrina to lead a poetry writing workshop for a small group of postgraduate students, based around a contemporary art exhibition at the South London Gallery. Katrina's informed and energetic approach to working with the students was most impressive; she managed to balance creativity and rigour in the exercises, and subsequent feedback, the students produced some great work as a result.'
