Artangel Interaction presents readings from Staying, by artist Oreet Ashery. Jerusalem-born British artist Ashery has collaborated with lesbian asylum seekers, developing characters, stories, drawings, and poems from their experiences of suffering traumatising discrimination, because of their sexual orientation, in their home countries.
These have been brought together in a publication available for download at http://www.artangel.org.uk
Please join us for readings from the publication and a discussion of the project.
Venue: Poetry Place, The Poetry Society, 22 Betterton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9BX

Organised by Camden LGBT Forum as part of LGBT History Month
