Solastalgia
A Queer Eco-Feminist Poetry Tour
By Jess X. Chen and Demian DinéYazhi'
SOLASTALGIA: (n.) The pain experienced when the place where one resides or one loves is under immediate assault.
SOLASTALGIA: a queer eco-feminist poetry tour featuring the transdisciplinary works and performances of Chinese-American migrant artist JESS X SNOW and Indigenous Diné artist Demian DinéYazhi founder of RISE: Radical Indigenous Survivance & Empowerment. Through poetry and public art, their work embodies the form of time travel and recalls narratives of queerness, love, trauma, fantasy, and survivance. Their work is a reclamation of inherited lands, ancestors, and cultures lost to post-apocalyptic colonial violence. Through poetry they create indigenous and immigrant futures in the time of our current ecological collapse.
Loved by our collective!
In their zine, Jess X. Chen and Demian DinéYazhi’ define Solastalgia as “the pain experienced when the place where one resides or one loves is under immediate assault”
What follows is a collective meditation of grief-stricken prose, tender healing potential, and wild resistance that underlies an eco-feminist call to action.
