Jo Morrigan Black (they/them) is a Paris-born writer, visual artist and performance poet. They have worked with indigenous leaders in Colombia, left stray feathers in Berlin and stalked the streets of Dublin as a vampire. Their stage performances combine Spoken Word, physical theatre and surrealist costuming in order to celebrate the queer and the unknowable in each of us.

Jo’s writing dwells in journals such as Poetry Ireland Review and Abridged. Their performances have been commissioned by the Runoviikko Festival in Finland, broadcasted on Dublin Digital Radio and presented by the Irish Writers Centre.

Showcased by Culture Ireland at Edinburgh Fringe 2025, their self-produced drag poetry show CARPET MUNCHER was shortlisted for the Binge Fringe Queer Performer’s Award and chosen as a Snack Mag Storytelling Top Pick.
