Canton Mute – Bie Yining


One of the most extraordinary young voices in world poetry, this debut pamphlet by Bie Yining brings together seven of her early sequences and long poems. Producing texts of a remarkable complexity and intensity while still in her late teens, this slim volume of texts speaks, in all it’s aberration and play, to hope for a new generation of inter-cultural writers.
SJ Fowler

Bie Yining (2005) is a poet and artist. She lives in Guangdong, China.

Designed to evidence the remarkable contemporary and innovative poetry being written by current and recent Kingston University Creative Writing students, this series of beautifully designed pamphlets each features a suite of poems, most often on one theme or in one style, by a solo author. The series mark the first publications of many poets who are very likely to be significant presences on the UK scene and beyond in the coming years.

Flight: Art and words reflecting Dagenham’s history of aviation

—————————-

In March 2026, CollectConnect artists exhibited a selection of mobiles in the Pink Tardis Gallery, Heathway Shopping Centre, Dagenham.

The theme, Flight, reflected Dagenham’s history of aviation. In the early 1900s, the Royal Aeronautical Society established a test facility for prototypes and experimental flying machines near Dagenham Dock. Several machines were built at Dagenham, including a quadruplane designed by Baden Baden-Powell, brother of Robert, the scouting founder.

A dedicated writer created a response to each of the 17 mobiles exhibited in the Pink Tardis Gallery.

CollectConnect is a caring cooperative of artists who organise art shows along the principle of participation and inclusion. They often exhibit outside of traditional gallery spaces where people can encounter art in public places.
