A New Career In A New Town (2019) is a creative writing manual, a diary and a selection of experimental texts that respond to the context of a new town being built on the banks of the Thames in North Kent.
Taking its title from a project devised for Whitstable Biennale by Ania Bas, Sally O’Reilly & Kit Caless in 2018, this e-book acts both as a ‘user’s guide’ to the project’s writing exercises and as a collection of the eleven participating artists’ responses. The participating artists were: Lydia Ashman, Beth Bramich, Maddy Costa, Sabrina Fuller, Nathania Hartley, Adrianna Liedtke, Ishbel McFarlane, Karen Morash, Mary Paterson, Helen Savage
A New Career In A New Town is part of DIY:15, a Live Art Development Agency Project and Whitstable Biennale’s residency programme.
