Facilitation & Speaking
We are all culture-makers. The notion of a 'universally correct culture' belongs to the colonial imagination. We belong here, in the culture we shape together.
See who I’ve partnered with below.
Gayathiri is able to create a sense of community in a poetry workshop space that doesn't require regular attendance, which is a rare thing to encounter. The sense of respect and trust evident in the space is a credit to the care and clear communication of Gayathiri as a facilitator.

I attended a poetry workshop run by Gayathiri centring people with chronic illness. We were able to be honest without drawing uncomfortable attention and all of our experiences were validated. I wrote about my pain in a way I had not done before. After finding that freedom I am working towards a sequence of new prose poems.

Gayathiri put the room at ease. They were more interested in how the poems made us feel, than what the poems 'meant'. It made for a truly eye-opening and heart-opening experience.
