Lydia Rose

Lydia Rose is a multi-disciplinary artist specialising in creative writing and cultural organising. As a queer, neurodivergent woman of colour and an intersectional eco-feminist and abolitionist, her writing and art focus on expressing her lived experiences and building life-affirming relations and systems through radical creativity and collaboration. Her writing has been published in multiple zines and online articles, and her autobiographical story is in a book called LGBTQIA+ Phobia in the Mental Health System, which includes a collection of stories by LGBTQIA+ survivors. She also published a spoken word album last November called This Body of Mine, which includes a range of performance poems exploring topics such as sexual violence, healing, community and bodily autonomy from an intersectional feminist lens.
