For the 2022 Hawke's Bay Arts Festival two researchers sat in a small writing room outside the Hastings City Art Gallery interviewing anyone who came along on the subject of Home.
This year – for the duration of the Festival - the stories collected will be posted up in a laneway at Toitoi for all to read. Over 70 people gave their stories, the youngest participant was 3, the oldest over 80. Of those, 43 snippets appear.
The 2022 project was titled 'Put My Ear To The Ground'. This year’s is called 'Listen For Your Words'. Both lines come from a poem written by the late Puti Lancaster, whose theatre practice inspired these two works.
'Listen For Your Words' is a collaborative work led by Jess Soutar Barron with support from Creative Communities Hastings.
