Today's guest is Moth Poet! Moth Poet is a Paris-born poet and visual artist of Irish, French and American nationalities. They bridge seas through poetry and cultural anthropology, investigating migration paths and experiences of liminality. Jo has worked with indigenous leaders in Colombia, left stray feathers in Berlin and stalked the streets of Dublin as a vampire. Their stage performances combine poetry, physical theatre and drag in order to celebrate the queer and the unknowable in each of us. I first got to see them preform opening at the αnnie ∧ the ωitness headline show in the Bello Bar and immediately thought to myself that I'd never seen a spoken word poetry show like it - They put on a performance that you just have to see and hear! I'll be chatting to them about how they got into poetry, their costumes, their characters (which includes the cryptid Mothman the fact I'm genuinely terrified of Moths), where their inspiration comes from and bunch of other topics like Sci-fi and Blackbeard the pirate!
