︎PROJECTS
kat benedict (they/them) is a writer, poet and facilitator based in London. Their practice is led by questions of death, memory, grief, literacies and erotics: through the body, the page and the archive. Their work develops what they term crip scripts, an interdisciplinary queer crip methodology that challenges normative structures of knowledge-making through three experimental strategies: fragmentation, collage, and fabulation.
Benedict’s writing has appeared in Silver Press, ArtReview, BlackFlash Magazine, esse arts + opinions, SLEEK Magazine, AQNB, C Magazine, Terra Firma Magazine, among others. Their poetry chapbook this aching archive, is available through presse books. Their first novel-in-progress, SANS III, traces Eva Hesse’s oeuvre through their crip body, her presence a ghost companion in a parallel chronicle of precarity.
Benedict has delivered workshops, readings, and community programmes at the ICA London, The Common Press, QueerCircle, Fringe! Queer Film & Arts Festival, and The Feminist Library, among others. They are a co-facilitator of the London Queer Death Café, a supportive space for LGBTQ2IA++ people to openly discuss death, grief and end-of-life care within a queer context.
