Ashley Hickson-Lovence & Matthew Rice: Art/Work

Ashley Hickson-Lovence and Matthew Rice push the limits of form to explore the tension between work and ‘the work’ of a writing life.

Set during a single 12-hour nightshift, Rice’s Plastic mixes poetics, memoir, and ekphrasis to illuminate the world of factory labour.

Hickson-Lovence’s About to Fall Apart, written as a single paragraph that unfolds across one frantic weekend, is a masterclass in voice.

Come along for an engrossing discussion on practice, labour, and where creativity resides.

Chaired by Colin Grant.
