A launch event for Clay AD's new poetry collection Holy Bodies.
Holy Bodies is a peep hole, glory hole and sink hole forming a somatic
stone soup of small proposals that together exalt the freedoms of
body, mind and spirit through care, sex, jokes, destruction and
transformation.
'Clay AD knows at an ancient and prescient level that, to quote from
their book, 'shit is all life', but also that life is the shit, and
the sunset, and the endgame. One for our immuno-suppressed comrades,
shit theorists, pink salt throwers, and their lovers and friends, that
is, I hope, everyone.' — Isabel Waidner 'Clay AD’s poetry is for
arseholes… & kneecaps, for belly buttons and sweaty crotches, for
perforated ear drums and rubbish immune systems. This book is a vessel
with feelings for vessels with feelings, transcribed in a trans crip
language that I have been waiting for.' — D Mortimer
Clay AD is a somatic bodyworker, artist and writer living in Glasgow.
