Resumen del Editor

When we don’t process the pain, where does it go? What is the purpose of being alive when there’s so much suffering? What does it mean to live and die with dignity in a world utterly opposed to it? Your Wound/My Garden is a collection of poetry written during Covid-19 lockdown. It's an argument for beauty in the face of grief, loss, and chronic pain. This new performance by ALOK utilizes the latest spatial audio technology, enhancing their words with sound art.

Poetry magic

Alok is a poetic genius. I deeply appreciate their voice and appreciate their poetry even more. This was an amazing experience, listening to Alok, not just hearing but listening to them. They have a beautiful way of putting even the most painful moments into words, thorns and all. Thank you Alok.

Simply Wonderful

This is a great example of why we need artists and truth tellers, like Alok. I will be thinking of his words for quite some time.

Eloquence and Grace

Words to what my soul was screaming. My relatability to Aloks message is both heartbreaking and my savior. Thank you for you vulnerability and courage. I will listen to you again and again and again. Everyone I know will know you.
