The Poetry Project

Mae Howard

Mae Howard is an artist, facilitator, and organizer whose work calls upon lineages of disabled labor economies. Their practice emphasizes endurance as a transmutation and manifestation of long-form debilitation. Howard's work is research-based, participatory, and collaborative, rooted in a shared form of witnessing through collective exchange and relational dependency. Their practice probes the aesthetic, material, and felt conditions of BDSM practices and leather histories as a foil to the medical-carceral industrial complex.
