Jamie Hale is a multidisciplinary creative and performance artist, with experience in curating, producing, and directing. They led CRIPtic 2019, and are delighted to bring it back in 2021. Their solo show, NOT DYING, has been featured at the Lyric in Hammersmith and the Barbican Centre, while the film has been shown internationally. Their first poetry publication is out in January, and is pandemic themed sonnets titled Shield. Jamie enjoys work that pushes and challenges them, that makes them think about new things (or the same things differently), and that is gorgeous – which can also mean terrible.
