“I come from a long line of kinaesthetic miracle makers: mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers. They found a way to rise above poverty by drawing from their skills to create with their hands exquisite embroidery known as Lefkaritika. I am a creation of these women, and I in turn offer an intricate sequence of threads through poetry-making.”
