AHMM Poet in Residence 27.03.23

AHMM have embarked on an exciting new project with multi-disciplinary artist and Poet Rhael ‘LionHeart’ Cape, our first Poet in Residence.

Over the course of a month LionHeart will deliver a bespoke residency programme, investigating how spaces and the built environment affect us and how we feel. LionHeart has already delivered two group workshops in both our London and Bristol offices focusing on techniques, writing exercises and challenges, prompts and readings. As well as the group workshops LionHeart will run a series of 1-1 sessions, that will inform new work created for the practice.

Rhael ‘LionHeart’ Cape is a Multi-Disciplinary Artist, Poet, BBC Radio London Presenter and an Honorary Fellow of the RIBA. He is one of the first Associate Artists of The Royal Albert Hall in over 150 years, Poet in Residence at 180 The Strand, and the first Poet in Residence at the Saatchi Gallery.

AHMM’s artist in residency programme has been initiated by the practice’s Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Group. This programme is one of several projects initiated by the group that recognise and celebrate our differences, and the diversity of our practice.
