Writing Skyscapes was the culmination of a two-day public writing workshop led by researchers specializing in astronomy and literature from Nottingham Trent University and the Critical Poetics Research Group. Working in partnership with Creswell Crags Museum and Heritage Centre and Backlit Gallery, Nottingham, and with guest writers and artists, Holly Corfield Carr, Richard Hamblyn and Helen McGhie, participants explored new ways of engaging with the sky from multiple viewpoints and from both rural and urban perspectives.
An exhibition of images and new writing was on display at Backlit Gallery, Nottingham (Friday 12th April – Sunday 14th April; 12-5pm) and Creswell Crags (15th to 28th April).
