Disappear Here are looking for writers/poets to submit three ideas / proposals / full poems for a collaborative poetry-film project about Coventry ringroad
Disappear Here - 9 x writers / 9 x film-makers / 27 poetry-films
We are looking for writers/poets/artists to submit three ideas / proposals / full poems for a collaborative poetry-film project about Coventry ring road.
The 18 artists selected will (in pairs) produce 3 poetry-films between them that explore the ring road as brutalist/modernist structure/setting/inspiration.
We are interested in artistic approaches to urban space, telling city stories and re-imagining the cyclical ring road as an (in-between) area of change/flux/progress.
Selected artists will be commissioned for the production of up-to three poems, at a fixed-fee of£350 (to include all travel and costs - with a focus upon paying writers to write) and will work alongside the film-maker in performance/production/consultation of their work.
There will be a summit meeting in Coventry (Sat 23/7/2016) between all of the participating artists - if applying - please ensure you are free on this date.
