In this episode, Jessica chats with Skyeris (she/they), who has been a sinistral, spitfire creatrix their entire life. Voice too loud, hair too unruly, spirit too wild—all of which they’re happy to claim.
A neurodivergent synesthete, she has always explored and dwelt in liminal spaces and borderlands, which are most natural to her innate curiosity and love of diversity. She has lived and traveled abroad for many years, for both study and work.
A lifelong vocalist and wordsmith, she deftly wields sound and language in various webs and weavings. From the Atlanta Beltline to Black Rock City to rural Japan, Skyeris has activated spaces, shared her voice, and expanded collective consciousness.
In no particular order, they are also a wanderer, ritualist, speaker, yoga practitioner, lover, thinker, rape survivor, reader, dancer. They also live with an invisible, chronic illness.
In the visible realms and beyond, she skillfully bridges the sacred and the mundane. She grounds spirit into matter; she transduces matter into spirit.
