Lucía Hinojosa Gaxiola & friends

Join us for an evening with Lucía Hinojosa Gaxiola & friends as we celebrate her presence here in New York City this winter as poet-in-residence at Torn Page. Help Tender Buttons Press raise awareness and support for her first single author book of poetry, The Telaraña Circuit in Spring 2022.

Funds are needed for printing, publicity, and for platform support for visual, aural and sonic aspects of the book. Join us in supporting and spreading the word about her innovative genre of expansive poetry and poetics by pre-ordering the book, or with a larger donation.

Original artworks by Lucía will also be available for purchase in support of the publication.

Lucía Hinojosa

++++

Lucía Hinojosa Gaxiola is an artist and poet. Her practice develops through conceptual gestures using poetry, sound and performance as research mechanisms. Her first book of poems The Telaraña Circuit (Tender Buttons Press) carries the traces of interdisciplinary projects exploring memory, archive, immateriality and the haptic, as well as the points of diffusion and synthesis between intimacy, politics and the ecology of sound. Her critical writings, poems and other experiments have been published in journals, zines and publications and she has exhibited and performed internationally. She's the director of diSONARE, a cross-cultural, experimental editorial platform from Mexico City.

Her work itself proposes that to listen involves the whole body. Lucia’s poetry moves across the page like an animal trespassing / transmuting the tongue. It transgresses the page, it trans-graces. A poetry that is investigative and ephemeral; it necessarily relies on documentary methods. —Carolina Ebeid. Poet, editor.
