Thompson, S., 2025.

In Conversation: Lisa Williams and Susannah Thompson

Public talk to accompany the exhibition 'Soft Impressions': Helen Cammock, Ingrid Pollard, Camara Taylor. The event was an evening discussion centred around the exhibition, the artists' work and the histories they engaged with - ranging from social reformer, abolitionist, orator, writer Frederick Douglass, to artist Robert S Duncanson, Dundee's jute mills, and historic pub signage and architecture. This event was introduced by Beth Bate, Director of DCA, and was followed by an audience Q&A.

Susannah was joined by Lisa Williams, author, poet and founder of the Edinburgh Caribbean Association. She curates a range of arts events across Scotland to promote Caribbean culture. Lisa is an Honorary Fellow in the School of History, Classics and Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh.
