Caroline Bergvall is an international poet, artist, and performer who works across art-forms, media, and languages. Projects alternate between books and printed matter, performances, site-specific installations and sound-works. The recipient of many arts commissions, awards, and fellowships, she is a noted exponent of writing and performance methods adapted to contemporary audiovisual and contextual situations, as well as multilingual identities. Her latest book Alisoun Sings (2019) is the final volume in a trilogy of works (following Meddle English in 2011 and Drift in 2014) using medieval and contemporary sources and languages. She is performing her sunrise performance Ragadawn as part of Galway 2020 in March ’20.
