Welcome to the Creative Nowhere Land Podcast!
In this captivating episode, we are thrilled to host award-winning documentary filmmaker, photographer, and studio owner, Paul Stringer. Paul's incredible journey is a testament to his passion for social issues, from the migrant crisis in Calais to anti-austerity protests and far-right marches, all the way to various community and social projects across the UK.
Paul shares his inspiring story of starting as a jobbing photographer, hustling to turn his creativity into a career. Discover how a random ad on Gumtree, a trip to Bosnia, and a poetry night became pivotal moments, shaping his understanding of the profound impact of visual storytelling on public perception.
Delve into Paul's exploration of the deeper elements of human life and his passion for storytelling, leading to his discovery of poetry. He instantly connected with this powerful medium, believing in its potential to change the world. Paul's dedication to documenting and promoting poets and their unique storytelling methods led to the creation of the Arts Council-funded exhibition, The City That Spoke To Me.
Continuing his advocacy, Paul launched Crate Poetry, a digital platform featuring high-quality poetry performance sets. His mission to bring poets and their work to a global online audience is both inspiring and impactful, earning him the nickname "Mr. Poetry."
Join us as Paul recounts his journey, from discovering his passion for documenting poetry to his ongoing efforts to support and promote poets. Check out the show notes for links to Crate Poetry and all of Paul's other remarkable projects. Tune in now and be inspired by Paul's compelling story!
