Six room image process: Rm 1 – IMAGE/PHOTOGRAPH – Think of something that is amazing, beautiful or interesting to you – close your eyes and visualise, describe it (don’t think of a poem)
Six room image process: Rm 2 – LIGHT – Look at the same image, but write about the colours, how does it look? – light, dark, hazy, shiny
Six room image process: Rm 3 – SOUND – what can you hear? Voices? Silence? Movement? Lonely? Peaceful?
Six room image process: Rm 4 – do you have any questions about your image? What do you want to know more about? What do you wonder about?
Six room image process: Rm 5 –what are your feelings?
Six room image process: Rm 6 – Look over your previous rooms and ideas and choose a word, a line or a phrase that feels important and repeat it 3 times
NOW have a go at creating a poem- you do not have to use all your ideas!
