Castle's latest exhibition, which will be touring New Zealand through
2009, comes with a publication featuring Castle's photographs of the landscapes
that inspired his pottery, the pots, and poems in response by Riemke Ensing,
Paula Green, Michael Harlow, David Howard, Jan Kemp, Therese Lloyd, Olivia
Macassey, Cilla McQueen, Richard Reeve, and Jack Ross. It has a foreword
by Tanya Wilkinson and a piece on Castle by Peter Simpson.
"Bringing poets and poetry into the mix was intended as a way to
allow a new exploration of this body of work, and the inspiration behind
it. The ten poets invited to take part were provided with a selection of
images - both ceramics from the exhibition and Castle’s landscape
images - and asked to respond to either element, or both." - Tanya
Wilkinson
