Creative Freedom

Creative Freedom: The FWords anthology, features new work by eight of Yorkshire's most talented literary and visual artists. The writers and artists were asked to respond to the Parliamentary Act of 1807 to abolish the British Slave Trade, focusing on the theme of Freedom.

Addressing a wide range of subjects – from oppression and restitution in 19th-century and contemporary South Africa to wry reflections on the thirst for freedom from a formerly imprisoned poet – this collection is an elegant exploration of the true meaning of liberation and its ironies in modern society.

"Who belongs and who does not belong to 'England's concrete jungle?' The work of these writers demonstrates not only do they belong, they also feel a powerful freedom to rewrite the story in a manner which makes sense to them."
Caryl Phillips

"Intelligent, witty, wry and passionate, the contents of 'FWords' are a salutary reminder of the need to redefine and remake continually what we mean by 'freedom'…"
Professor Shirley Chew – Editor: Moving Worlds.

Tanya Chan-Sam, Khadijah Ibrahiim, Jack Mapanje, Simon Murray, Seni Seneviratne, Rommi Smith, and visual artists Fosuwa Andoh & Seyi Ogunjobi.
