Writing 2011 - Friday 29 July

Last day of the symposium - and David was presented with a handmade book by Thomas Ingmire's group - he had been working with them directly and writing a poem about them doing calligraphy.

And at the end of a busy final day came the displays of work ... books ...

glass ...

more books ...

collage ....

more collage ...

even more collage ...

and two Northumbrian Scribes (the third is behind the camera).

The quality and variety of the work shown is amazing. The photographs here can show only a small amount of the pieces on display. However, there is a film being made of the event and it will eventually appear on the International Research Centre for Calligraphy website. After a talk by Suzanne Moore in the evening a 12 minute fragment of the film was shown - it is currently being edited into a final version from hours of footage.

That is all from Writing 2011.
