Steven J. Fowler

An exhibition exploring visual storytelling, and how innovative methodologies around language, design, composition can amplify and extend the ways in which we read, and see, a story or tale. The exhibition presents concrete poetry alongside word clouds, abstract art alongside asemic writing, and firmly emphasises what is possible when we no longer take for granted what a story is, on the page, canvas, wall.

Aimee Nimmo

The exhibition special view featured a series of performances by exhibitors. It was part of the Writing Cultures’ Festival of Storytelling which is taking place from January 24th to March 14th 2025, with events at The National Gallery, workshops and happenings across Kingston University, and an exhibition - a centrepiece showcase for students, staff and poets and artists across the UK. 

Danica Ignacio

The exhibition was curated by Steven J Fowler and conceived by Sara Upstone and Kate Scott. It was co-curated by Cameron Wade, Eleanor Wilders and Danica Ignacio.
