Perth Poetry Club has wonderful poet Jackson, visiting from Aotearoa New Zealand, plus open-mike,
this Saturday 14th September, 2pm-4pm, at The Moon Café & on Zoom.
Jackson (they/them), now living in Aotearoa New Zealand, is known across Australia as a poet and performer and was the founder of Perth Poetry Club. They have published 4 full-length collections. The latest, A coat of ashes (Recent Work Press 2019), is based on their award-winning PhD, which explores how poetry can bring together scientific and spiritual discourses, focusing on physics, systems theory and philosophical Daoism. They are currently exploring more personal material.
They have won two poetry prizes and were nominated for Best of the Net 2022. Their poems have been published in Australian, New Zealand and overseas journals and anthologies. They publish online at writerjackson.com. Facebook: @writerjackson Instagram: @thewriterjackson
