Pen-Ting Vol. 18: Catching Bodies

Welcome back y'all!

We're back this month with some more powerful poetry vibes at  SET Dalston!

This month we're inviting you to look within and without at who we are and how we be. We're interested in the human experience and how we define ourselves.

Our features this month discuss the the politics of the body and of differing body types, so we're inviting you to look within and without at who we are and how we be. We're interested in the human experience and how we come to define ourselves via the bodies we inhabit.

This theme deals with the double meanings of “catching” a body (like saving a friend from a bad situation) and catching bodies - in rap parlance, to destroy someone in rhyme.
