Poet Ros Zimmermann plays with language as a body that is a reservoir of continual change and reallocation, with the idea that all bodies of matter are in motion.
Lisa Harries Schumann is a translator from the German and a writer of prose exploring the historical past, myth-making, and the obscured root-tendrils between the two that spring up in our present.
In their collaborative piece, Ros and Lisa use the Chestnut Hill Reservoir as inspiration, circling an imagined water from which roads splay, pipes drain, and thoughts emerge.
