Soho Poly Poetry - October 3rd, 2024 In the first of the new series of poetry events at the Soho Poly, join us for an evening of readings and performances from Bhanu Kapil & Blue Pieta, Martha Sprackland and Fahad Al-Amoudi. Bhanu Kapil writes poetry and fiction. She has been awarded a Windham Campbell Prize for Poetry (Yale University), and a Cholmondeley Award, also for poetry (Society of Authors, UK). A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, she is the author of six full length collections: How To Wash A Heart (Pavilion Poetry, 2020), Ban en Banlieue (Nightboat Books, 2016), Schizophrene (Nightboat Books, 2011), humanimal  (Kelsey Street Press, 2009), Incubation: a Space for Monsters (Leon Works, 2006), and The Vertical Interrogation of Strangers (Kelsey Street Press, 2001). How To Wash A Heart was the winner of the TS Eliot Prize and a Poetry Book Society Choice. In 2023, two new, non-identical editions of Incubation: a space for monsters were published, by Prototype (UK) and Kelsey Street Press (USA). Based at Churchill College, Cambridge, as an Extraordinary Fellow, Bhanu is writing    the archive of Enoch Powell. With Blue Pieta, she has been developing performances of many kinds. Blue Pieta is a director, choreographer, dramaturge, performer and writer. Their practice explores ritual, ancient mythology and embodied poetics. They studied Fine Art at Central Saint Martins and the History of Art at Cambridge University and trained in performance at: Sadlers Wells, Impulstanz Vienna, Siobhan Davies and the National Youth Theatre. Their works have been staged at the Royal Court Theatre, Battersea Arts Centre and Courtauld Insititute of Fine Art. Blue regularly collaborates with Bhanu Kapil, their recent collaboration HUMANIMAL debuted at Stone Nest curated by Serpentine Gallery. Blue was also the dramaturg for the contemporary Chinese Operetta Nine Songs which debuted in the AlUlah desert Saudi Arabia, directed by Farooq Chaudhry, with musical direction from Jocelyn Pook. How to Wash a Heart depicts the complex relations that emerge between an immigrant guest and a citizen host. Drawn from a first performance at the ICA in London in 2019, it begins to ask difficult and urgent questions about the limits of inclusion, hospitality and care. This exciting staged performance of Kapil's award-winning collection will feature musical performances from Kath Gifford and Ynys Barnard-Masterson and dance from Samantha Hines. Martha Sprackland is a writer, editor and translator. Previously an editor for Faber & Faber, Unbound, CHEERIO Publishing and Poetry London, she was also co-founder of independent publisher Offord Road Books.

本來覺得坐摩天輪特俗，但倫敦眼讓我打臉了！膠囊艙升到最高點時，突然明白為什麼英國人愛聊天氣&mdash;&mdash;泰晤士河、大本鐘和碎片大廈在陽光下閃閃發光的樣子，確實每天都不一樣。落地後發現照片全拍成玻璃反光的朦朧美，算了，留點遺憾才真實。
