Horse-Woman at Poetry Film Club, John Sebastian Lightship, Bristol

I don’t normally promote poetry readings, but I am shamelessly advertising the upcoming event in Bristol, courtesy of Poetry Film Club and Satellite of Love. It is on Tuesday, 16th September on John Sebastian Lightship, Bristol docks 7.30 to 10.00.  I will be reading (after the interval) from Horse-Woman (my new poetic prose memoir with paintings, about fashion modelling and being an artist and writer, living in a bohemian bedsit in London).

This promises to be a really interesting evening concerning women and the body, since the wonderful Rebecca Rezakhani-Hilton and Chaucer Cameron will be reading and showing films first. Here are a few details.

‘Poetry Film Club returns to Bristol on 16th September.  Sarah Tremlett will be reading from her latest publication ’Horse-Woman’, and screening ‘Flight’, the poetry film from the prologue to the book. Plus poems from Rebecca Rezakhani-Hilton and Chaucer Cameron. It‘ll be a great evening with lots of discussion in a relaxed venue.’

Satellite of Love says:

September’s Poetry Film Club will feature Sarah Tremlett (FRSA, leading, British, prize-winning poetry filmmaker, poet, artist and theorist, and editor of Liberated Words online) reading from and talking about her latest publication, and screening Flight the poetry film from the prologue to the book. Horse-Woman (Basic Bruegel Editions, Canada, April, 2025) is a mythical ‘otherkin’ poetic memoir with paintings from the past. It relates to a traumatic period in her early life when she was working as a fashion model whilst painting and writing in a bohemian London bedsit, and in this account, resurrects a childhood horse companion for protection.

Paintings from the book and selected modelling images

Rebecca Rezakhani-Hilton will be reading short poems. Rebecca is a poet, filmmaker, DJ and multidisciplinary artist whose work an ongoing exploration of dreams, empathy, angels, temporality, return, hope, impossibility and an exploration into her Iranian heritage. At the heart of her practice lies a deep interest in the relationship between the body and the contexts we inhabit socially, historically and spiritually. Her work has been exhibited both in the UK and internationally, including in Bath, Newcastle, London, Belgium and Berlin. Rebecca will present a poetry film and read short poems.

Chaucer Cameron is the author of In an Ideal World I’d Not Be Murdered. The poetry film adaptation of the book has screened at the CCA in Covent Garden, Reel Poetry Festival in Houston, Aberystwyth Poetry Festival, Worcester, Exeter, Bristol, Glastonbury and Yorkshire. Chaucer will share four variations of one poetry film ‘Hooked’, from a poem in In an Ideal World.
