Containment and creativity.

In offering a collection both of poems and short prose fiction, my intention is to demonstrate my exploration of certain motifs and poetics across the two genres, specifically in respect to my core discussion of the creative interaction of structure and imagination. I am interested in how the playing out of this dynamic, in both genres, might influence the deployment of form and the way content is experienced by the reader. In particular I focus on how three fundamental aspects, figurative language, thematic preoccupations, and formal/theoretical parameters, intersect and thereby influence, their respective expression in the light of this dynamic. In addition, I have highlighted the way criteria foregrounded within the MA have influenced my practice and contributed to the shaping of a personal aesthetic founded in the belief that formal constraints can enrich the reader's reception of a piece, and in a manner that is both liberating and democratic.
