Performance artist and Fellow of the State Library of Victoria, Leisa Shelton, is working on a project for an exhibition ‘(In)visible Libraries’ that includes small hand-made books of haiku from Under the Same Moon alongside their translation into Braille. The first of these features urban haiku. Poets whose work has been selected are Olivia Ark, Gavin Austin, Dawn Bruce, Jane Gibian, Louise Hopewell, Jayashri Maniyil, Maurice Nevile and Lyn Reeves. There is a readers’ corner where people can access these books. If you are in Melbourne you may like to drop in and enjoy the poetry. For more information please visit the link below:
