Based on the belief that poetry, especially when it is about brown bodies and spaces must be a living, breathing experience, this (re)launch party of Pooja Nansi's third collection We Make Spaces Divine showcases a collaboration between her and musician Isuru Wijesoma inspired by the musical references in her poems.
The collection which has been shortlisted for the Singapore Literature Prize and named one of the 50 greatest works of Sing Lit by the Straits Times, deals with themes of remembrance, joy and bearing witness with spaces like the iconic Mustafa Centre as its backdrop.
They are accompanied by a DJ set from powerhouse Joshua P that will carry on after the performance and opening readings by Kiran Kaur Dhaliwal and Sarah Farheenshah Begum.
