Toponymie
In 2023, I was commissioned by Nottingham City of Literature to write a piece for this exciting project.
Organised by Québec City of Literature, Toponymie was an exhibit of poetry and creative prose encouraging partnerships of writers and artists from fellow UNESCO Cities of Literature to explore the name of their place.
My poem was stunningly illustrated by the very talented Hannah Radnekova.
The physical exhibition was on display at Place D’Youville and the Château Frontenac in Old Quebec, then in different parks around the city.
The good news is, you can see all the pieces online! For each city’s entry, you can read the text in French, English and, where applicable, other local languages.
