In our first edition, three artists voice different experiences rooted in communal backgrounds and other practices.

Meloe Gennai is an interdisciplinary community-based artist working with image and writing in movement. With X collective X (IG: @_x_collective_x_, they have published two books; as well as two of their own. Meloe currently works as a dramaturge and playwright. Their latest fully accessible play, SNOB*, is based on selective mutism and autistic body language.
