who we are

Corrupted Poetry is a state of mind. We create readings and collaborations that bring together the very best writers of contemporary  poetry and present their work alongside art  and  sound content to provoke debate about the poem's visual & sonic spaces. 'The most thoughtful poetry event' Chrissy Williams
