Featured Guest: m. patchwork monoceros
m. patchwork monoceros is a polydisciplinary artist and writer exploring multi-sensory-production-as-access and somatic grief through poetry, textiles, and film. Their work considers a collective qrip (queer+crip) consciousness by connecting to marvelous bodies living with complexity as sick or disabled. A Black, genderqueer chronically ill creator of Jamaican ancestry, monoceros lives with their four-legged family in Treaty 1 Territory, also known as Winnipeg, MB, the traditional territory of the Anishinaabe, Dene, Cree, Dakota and Oji-Cree Nations and home of the Métis First Nation.
