Phoenix Yemi

Phoenix Yemi is a Nigerian-British poet, artist, and curator whose work is dedicated to resistance through the erotic. Rooted in surrealist traditions of liberation, she works at the intersections of body and earth, desire and dissent, reimagining language to summon new ways of being. Her writing moves between the intimate and the mythic, drawing on dream logic, ritual, and Black feminist thought to examine transformation, longing, and resistance. She has performed across London in spaces including Tate Modern, the Barbican, and the Serpentine. She writes A Worm Moon for Worms Magazine, and is the founder of Black Geographies.
