Credits and contributors
Behind this exhibition is a suite of poems and some ideas for experiencing poetry that came from my Residency here at Bank Street. I’ve done things here that I would never have been able to without this Residency, so I’m hugely grateful for the chance and the space. I’m also grateful to the Arts Council, England, who have funded part of this work, and to Hallam University, who have supported me throughout the work.
However, over 100 other people have contributed to make this exhibition work.
Key people are:
Michael Harding, responsible for taking my ideas for the audio installation and turning them into something which works, even powerfully at times. You can track him down at: http://www.theonlymichael.co.uk/index.htm
Katherine Johnson, visual artist with a delicate sensibility, responsible for the finer objects in the exhibition, the look and feel of the white space, and the delicate maze of the Garden of Stones. Her work and bio is featured at: http://www.axisweb.org/seCVPG.aspx?ArtistID=13629
Chris Roast developed the programming beneath the digital poems. Chris researches in computing at Sheffield Hallam University. See his site at: http://extra.shu.ac.uk/crr/
John Clark, as curator of Bank Street, and Ben Womack, as curator of this exhibition, who have overseen and implemented an unpredictable series of changes and evolutions.
