Here Harriet Tarlo presents a collection of place-based work emerging from three collaborative projects that took place between 2011-2019 in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Reminiscent of her early long poem, Nab, this work emerges from what could be described as fieldwork, poetry based on walking through, and engaging with place. This poetry also emerges from and touches on collaboration, always with the artist Judith Tucker, but also with people who live in and visit the areas concerned. Up until this moment, these have been pieces in fl ux, from which shorter texts have been extracted for numerous exhibitions. Many of the longer pieces have been read at openings and poetry readings. Here, for the fi rst time, they can be seen as a body of work. In a changing world, with an ever-deepening sense of environmental crisis, it is important to attend to the local and the specific, and this work speaks to that need.
