MA Fine Art writing tutor Daniela Cascella will read from her new book Singed. The reading will be followed by a conversation between Daniela and Alena Alexandrova.


A fire, and the effort to remember a lost song, open into a meditation on the transmission of knowledge and how to articulate words in front of different types of speechlessness. The space of writing appears in these pages as a material engagement with language which points at its excess; at sounds and voices; at the ephemeral and the untold which continue to puzzle and enchant, and prompt more writing. Sometimes, a form of outburst. A place for rebeginning. Sometimes a cadence, a rhythm, an arrangement. A convulsion in stillness.
