History

I have been writing poetry seriously for 15 years and in the performing context have been working with mixed media (words, music and images) and other artists (actors, dancer, musicians, mime artists, sound technicians) for the past 8 years.

My performance set is entitled SPEAK and is put together for each specific event, depending on time and technical equipment available. It is my desire to develop my solo performing with mixed media, while also continuing to explore collaborations with other artists.

Here's what some people who I have worked with and for have said about my work:

"Sarah Fordham's poems are deeply spiritual and very accessible, they carry a breadth of vision that, when combined with sound and visual media can carry you into war or cradle you in your mothers' arms. This is good effective poetry and her mutimedia presentations of them do justice to an artform that is often overlooked."

"Sarah Fordham's performance poetry is a remarkable combination of artforms - words, images, sounds ... Depth and accessibility in every line: a vertitable Gesamtkunstwerk (complete work of art)."

"Words which transform you from hearer to mover in body, mind and spirit."
