V (they/them) is an interdisciplinary multimedia artist, ritualist, and poet-philosopher residing in liminalities by way of New Orleans.

They do not believe in nouns as fixed objects—though the ones other people most often ascribed to them include witch, mystic, and philosophic smart-ass (take your pick, or try all three).

Verbs tend to be more useful, and so V is said to be currently working at the crossroads of the mind and the poetic body. Their ongoing research and ritual praxis explores time, transformation, and grief through layered analyses of language, myth, and alchemical process. Rooted in a deep engagement with literature, esotericism, and relational ontology, V is known for moving fluently between scholarship and spirit, the imaginal and the philosophical.

They are the creator of SaturnVox, a multimedia platform that includes a podcast, blog, divinatory services, and ritual performance. Their work is grounded in anti-capitalist values, reciprocity, and the aesthetics of withnessing. Through SaturnVox, V builds spaces for healing, critical reflection, and mythopoetic rebellion.

A graduate of the GEM program at Rice University, V’s academic training informs a rigorous and interdisciplinary approach, weaving together continental philosophy, literary analysis, psychoanalytic theory, and mystical traditions. As a performance artist, they transform this training into a writing and ritual practice deeply concerned with how bodies are shaped by time and power, how suffering becomes form, and how being “with” someone in curiosity becomes a site of ethical and creative reciprocity.

At the heart of this work is the figure of the genius—not as talent, but as the daimonic core of one’s becoming. To be saved, in this frame, is to enter into sustained and ethical relation with the creative force of imagination that shapes you. This is the foundation of SaturnVox: that all true transformation begins in remembering your genius and learning how to live with it.

In their spare time, V tends to their garden, revels in fashion and design, and has recently begun creating art from sonic objects collected around the silence of everyday. They also have a deep appreciation for film and narratology and can often be found curled on the couch with a story and their cats for company.
