From Mary Shelly to Madonna, womxn’s art and literature is littered with macabre and controversy. This ghoulish optic often employs themes of death, violence, the occult, sex and mythology to grapple with complex narratives that shape womxn’s experiences past and present. Join a panel of celebrated voices – poet and musician Iona Lee and writer and rapper Empress - as they discuss their own influences and interrogate this dark lyrical tradition. This event is curated and chaired by festival Writer-in-Residence Victoria McNulty.
