Latest Spoken Label (Poetry / Writer / Artist Podcast) features the amazing Perry Gasteiger.
Perry Gasteiger (they/them) is a non-binary Canadian poet who focuses on the mundanity of existence through a lens of empathetic consideration. They enjoy exploring phenomenological ideas of lived experience and how they mold our understanding of ourselves and our world. By pushing the boundaries of their own experiences, Perry tries to find universalities in unique situations for people to connect through. Bringing attention to the extraordinary nature of life and pain, they juxtapose the beautiful and the deformed, the congruent and the discordant, and the comfortable and the anxious.
Perry draws much of their imagery from the landscapes of northern Ontario where they grew up, and severe bodily exploration and discomfort. They find the connection between human nature and the wider rhythms of the natural world especially intriguing, taking particular pleasure in dismantling the corporeal experience into its component parts and closing the gap between the controlled and the wild.
In this session, we talk about Perry's debut collection "Meditations for the Dead and Dying". This collection explores topics of self, identity, and relationship through a thorough undoing of the body. Tearing open the discomfort of corporeality, this brief selection is a feast of blood, bone, and flesh that will leave you hungry for more.
