Wendy is working with Kate Forsyth on a book of poetry and paintings called ‘Alchemy’ which will be published next year by Upswell Press.
She has also been involved with another book called ‘Borderless: A transnational anthology of feminist poetry’. Her painting ‘The woman she was’ is the cover of this publication.
‘Borderless presents a collection of brand new, specially commissioned poems from a wide range of contemporary poets reflecting on feminism in its broadest sense. While it builds on the work of previous anthologies, in this one the voices of First Nations, refugee and migrant poets are a deliberate focus. These poems plunge the reader deep into the experience of life in the world, at this moment, in a woman’s body, and explore multitudinous versions of what that can mean.’
