Abstract

Their Colours and their Forms has been curated by John Strachan, Brian Thompson and myself. It is an exhibition that shows new work by artists, composers and creative writers responding imaginatively to Wordsworth’s life and poetry and the manuscripts of William and Dorothy Wordsworth displayed in the Museum.

For this exhibition, my work was shown alongside the manuscripts of Dorothy and William Wordsworth held by the trust, and as a direct result of this project, four new pieces have been acquired by the Wordsworth Trust and are now on permanent display next to the Journals of Dorothy Wordsworth that my work references
