Poems created at a Sapphormation workshop using original WRAP data

The Reanimating Data Project (2018-2020) involved a series of experiments in working with extracts from interviews with young women from 1989-1990. These poems were created by participants in a workshop at the Sapphormation Festival for women who love women in Manchester on 2 November 2019. By reading and rereading a short extract from a WRAP interview, and paying attention to key themes, words and metaphors, writing a poem can create a condensed and intensified account of the story being told.
