A popular quote often published in his poetry collections is: 'Colour, creed, sex, sexuality... These are but part of a whole'. Aside from poetry he has also written several novels, two of which have been published. On Tuesday 14 July 2009 Roger N. Taber participated in UK sculptor Antony Gormley's 'One And Other' live arts project (Week 2) as one of 2,400 people selected at random to capture a moment in time on the 4th plinth in London's Trafalgar Square. This significant archival project – designed to run continuously 24/7 for 100 days – expresses not only the diversity of the UK population but also the human psyche. Taber read a selection of his own poetry, including poems on gay and transgender themes among others intended to represent his perspective on contemporary society. (en) |
