POETRY PROJECT was a program of online writing workshops broadcast from Thamesmead, South East London, during the lockdown in 2021.
This project, curated by Nathalie Coste, was supported by the London Community Foundation and Estuary Festival.
Texts and poems were created during online workshops facilitated by Jamie Zubairi, actor and Natasha Trent, poet. Members of the Thamesmead community and beyond were attending the workshop with the project to display their words through an LED board hung from the rooftop of the Lakeside Centre, Thamesmead.
LED boards are commonly used for advertising. The purpose was modified to turn it into a community Artwork and use it as a medium of creation and communication.
