Homesick Living Hyphen
-
- Arts
An episode for those of us who are living far away from those we love, and from the places we call home. An episode on being homesick while being homestuck.
All of today’s pieces are from Living Hyphen’s inaugural issue, paying tribute to where it all began as we seek to define something as beautiful and impossible as a “home.”
Featured in this episode:
• Hannah Atkinson Renglich is a facilitator in love with processes of transformation and emergence. She writes a poem every day.
• Nimra Bandukwala is an artist, a community arts facilitator, and a Masters student in Occupational Therapy based in Mississauga and the UK. She’s interested in the intersections of making, storytelling, culture, and well-being. Nimra has led arts-based workshops with neurodiverse children and adults, and currently facilitates workshops for seniors living in the GTA. She also co-lead Reth Aur Reghistan with her sister Manahil, a multi-disciplinary project that engages with folklore from Pakistan through sculpture, poetry, and community. Learn more or follow Nimra on Instagram at @nimrabandukwala.art.
• Micaela Pereira Bajard has roots in what is now known as Bolivia and Canada. Life opportunities have allowed her to branch out and grow in both her home countries and other lands in different continents. She is passionate about social justice and writes creative non-fiction on her downtime to reconnect with different facets of her identity.
• Patricia South is an aspiring author and passionate storyteller. She particularly enjoys recounting stories from her childhood, growing up in Jamaica. She has had stories and poetry published in The Globe and Mail and Living Hyphen magazine.
