Katrina has also been writer-in-residence at Hartlepool Art Gallery for the ‘In Thy Face I See…’ show of local and international artists.
She wrote poems in response to a series of portraits and the poems and paintings formed a joint exhibition. Katrina ran several workshops on writing from art and held drop-in sessions for local poets, which received widespread local coverage in the press.
It’s been a great experience being the first poet-in-residence at the Leach Pottery in St Ives. With its strong Japanese connections, it’s enabled me to continue my exploration of all things Japanese after my recent writing trip to Japan.
A week’s writing at the Roger & Laura Farnworth Residency at Warleggan on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall.
Katrina was writer-in-residence at the Arnolfini in 2016. She wrote a range of poems in response to Daphne Wright’s ‘Emotional Archeology’ exhibition.
