'Circa Instans' by Meg Bateman

Poet and writer Meg Bateman responds to 'Materia Medica' as part of the Neu! Treasures! commission. She discusses her writing practice, being a poet, and her approach to working with this item from the collections at the National Library of Scotland.
In partnership with Neu! Reekie!, the National Library of Scotland commissioned artists to respond to collection items which are displayed in the Treasures exhibition. Each artist has created a new work of poetry, prose, song or film in response to their collection item.
