The Poetics of Space with Helen Hagemann -Friday, 16th June, 1pm-3pm  
 

This workshop is about taking a journey into intimate spaces, through old houses, dream homes, cellars, attics, verandahs, sheds, up stairs, under stairs, even where a whole house might serve as a portal to the imagination. Writers will read sections of Gaston Bachelard's text "The Poetics of Space" and writing exercises will ponder miniature spaces, the significance of doorknobs, even consider the houses of things: drawers, chests and wardrobes. 

Inspiration through Photography This May workshop focused on several photographers including Juno Gemes (AU), Deidi von Schaewen (DE), and famous aperture photographers, Berenice Abbott (US), Walker Evans (US) and Eugène Atget (FR). Pictures of the various artists' works were used as a springboard to characters, setting and dialogue. Writers also had the choice to bring a favourite snap or photo album as a desired alternative.
