Film director, cinematographer and artist Simon Frederick was asked to capture the poets defining contemporary culture in the UK as promotion for the upcoming Poets Revival at The Royal Albert Hall. Through Simon's photography and film, we has brought the vibrant and dynamic souls of today’s UK contemporary poets into focus. Each portrait is a testament to the spirit, creativity, and diverse voices that are shaping the future of poetry and, by extension, our cultural narrative.
The films which accompany his images include George The Poet @georgethepoet, Kae Tempest @kaetempest, Suli Breaks @sulibreaks, Momtaza Mehri @ruffneckrefugee, Harry Baker @harrybakerpoet, Sophie Thakur @sophiathakur, Toby Campion @tobycampion, and Theresa Lola @theresa_lola amongst others. This series is a celebration of artistry, individuality, and the power of words to move, challenge, and inspire. It’s a reminder that the vibrancy of contemporary British culture is alive and thriving in the voices of poets who dare to dream, to speak, and to share their truth.
