Theme: Canines

Themes are not mandatory, they are just to encourage you to experiment with your writing and improvisation. Feel free to make it weird.

Juniper Ruth Ariel Maffescioni (she/her) is an artist and poet living and working on Wurundjeri country.

Glassblower by day, and feral hedonist (poet) by night, Juniper recounts her experiences of love, transness, and deeply intimate t4t connections in her often erotic and visceral poetry. She tends to navigate her sensuality in a holistic sense. Juniper’s writing finds boundless self love, healing, and human connection in the romanticising of the arbitrary, the intricate, and the intense.
