Karin Spitfire: The Body in Late Stage Capitalism and Other Poems @ Friends of Harriet L. Hartley Member Meeting @ Belfast UU & ZOOM

From the Friends of Harriet L. Hartley:

“This month, we are joined by HLH's own Karin Spitfire, a poet and activist conceptual artist who uses whatever medium necessary to get across the message, song, dance, poetry, rant, diatribe, prints, artist books, and letterpress. Spitfire is the author of two poetry collections, Standing with Trees (2006), and The Body in Late Stage Capitalism (2021).

From touring a performance piece called “Incest: It’s All Relative” nationally in the 80’s; to a community engagement event “The Sardine Extravaganza: For the Love of Herring” in 2010; to her current work in progress of moving sculptural books “Seven Sacred Sites/Sights,” Spitfire’s work calls us out and in. Spitfire also makes pysanky, Ukrainian egg dying, as a spiritual practice evoking on her matrilineal roots.

LIVE! @ Sanctuary of the Unitarian Universalist Church of Belfast
