Making & Mending: Cadence Chung, Gregory Kan, Jiaqiao Liu & Nina Mingya Powles | Writers on Mondays

A poet's toolbox is filled with techniques to help them kick-start or rebuild a poem, but sometimes the tried and true tricks aren't enough. How can poets engage with other forms of art and artmaking to challenge and reinvent how poetry is written?
New Zealand Poet Laureate Chris Tse talks with Cadence Chung (Mad Diva), Gregory Kan (Clay Eaters), Jiaqiao Liu (Dea Alter) and Nina Mingya Powles (In the Hollow of the Wave) about how their creative pursuits and interests outside poetry shape and inform their latest collections.
Writers on Mondays is presented by the International Institute of Modern Letters and Te Papa Tongarewa. The 2025 series will run from 12.15—1.15 pm each Monday from 7 July to 29 September at Te Papa Tongarewa and Circa Theatre, with two special evening sessions at Meow. Admission is free and all are welcome. The series is supported by the Letteri family.
