The two artists selected aspects of the house to form the basis of a creative dialogue. Jane Cummins used 19th century photographic techniques and focused on the story of Anne La Touche whose bust sits in the entrance hall. Grace Wilentz\u2019s poems explored the themes of time and memory, chance, devotion, a private home with a public future, and unity coming out of fragmentation. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span><span>As well as producing a series of poems, Grace Wilentz also hosted a free 2 hour Zoom poetry workshop \u2013 <em>Writing Resilience <\/em>&#8211; for 15 DLR volunteers engaged in a letter-writing initiative.
