Poetry reading by Loki Liddle

Join Jabirr Jabirr poet and frontman of Gold Coast band Selve in an exclusive first reading of Damn Good Television: a collection of poetry and stories created through his ArtKeeper residency at HOTA.  

A renowned and electric performer, Loki has shared his poetry at such places and events as; Woodford Folk Festival, Bleach* Festival, Melbourne Fringe Festival, Horizon Festival, La Boite Theatre, QPAC, Brisbane Festival, Documenta15 and has had his work published in the Griffith Review and 'This All Come Back Now'.  

His band Selve have recently returned from their national Red Desert Dream Tour which took them from the Gold Coast to Broome and back hitting everywhere on the east coast along the way. Brimming with energy, charm, comedy and power; Loki's first sharing of his new work Damn Good Television is an event you don't want to miss.  

Make a night of it! 

Register to experience an exclusive work-in-progress showing afterwards of AWAKE by Lisa Smith- a new theatre work that explores the public rituals of farewell alongside the more private face of grieving, created through Lisa’s ArtKeeper residency.
