Thoughtful Tuesdays: Fractured Foundation bit.ly/2VW4YlD Page Editor Eithne Cullen says "For me, ‘Fractured’ as a theme also resonates in the ways we write and the way we approach our creative lives. During the summer, I was fortunate to see the Tracey Emin and Frida Kahlo exhibitions at the Tate Modern. These were such thought-provoking exhibitions, with so much to say about the way these two women’s lives and experiences informed the way they went on to create. Both faced difficulties in their lives, but used the fractured foundations of their creative lives to build impressive bodies of powerful, visual art."Thoughtful Tuesdays features the following pieces:These Are My Feelings by Nicki MaybelDigging by Gloria MaloneyEscape From Poland by Nicholas VaughanImages Of A Family by Allan LochheadRead Write On! magazine pentoprint.org/product/see-write-on-issue-30-here/ Listen to Write On!
