"The artivist (artist + activist) uses their artistic talents to fight and struggle against injustice and oppression. The artivist merges commitment to freedom and justice with the pen, the lens, the brush, the voice, the body, and the imagination. The artivist knows that to make an observation is to have an obligation." M.K Asante
I left,
the sun was eating me
I wanted my bones to burn
I came back,
cut onions on a wooden board
my knife said: you are worth crying for
- Body Compost & other ghost poems
Books
Are you a house haunted by complex relationships?
Body Compost & other ghost poems is a collection for dug-up gardens and plants looking for the right soil to grow.
These poems are homes for dust bunnies, spices, fears and heart beats.
They give solace to what we can't make sense of by giving the spotlight to the quotidien, the sensory and the memory.
Pink Goo is about a spiral down to anxiety and depression and the following journey to find peace. After trying to shed light on social injustice, sexual harassment and the climate collapse, the poet finds herself in the darkness and explores many corners within herself, rough and soft. In the deep furrows of her mind, Loulou finds a white canvas on which she paints with colours to lift her spirit while allowing nuances of grey to tell the depth of reality.
These poems are to aid the reader who wants to scream but doesn’t find the words. They are a balm to spread on trauma wounds. They care for the soul after a storm.
