A poster which reads: A collection of piercingly fresh poetry from Kayleigh Mai Hinsley and Cat Johnston accompanied by Elliot Hetheron’s original music. Johnston’s writing drenches the reader’s imagination with different senses, while Hinsley’s poetry is filled with tender, bubble-like recollections of childhood. Together, their words fluctuate between tunnelling into the fogginess of the past and encapsulating the present with a terse vividness. Read the words aloud to Hetherton’s ethereal score for the full experience.
