Event Description

TAKE A STEP BACK IN TIME with a series of shapes from the pages of much loved Australian modernist poet, Kenneth Slessor.

Proceeding from experience of a past Sydney through visions that hold a momentary exaltation extending from the 1930s. Poetic images that evoke the sensory qualities of experience in flesh and blood, lived with ‘feel’.

“Writing poetry is a pleasure, ...a pleasure out of hell”
Kenneth Slessor 1947
