Maud Joiret

Maud Joiret was born in 1986 in Brussels. She is a poet and performer (on stage, on video, sometimes in front of a camera), and a literary columnist.

Cobalt, her first book of poetry (published by Tétras-lyre) received the First Work Prize of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation in 2020 and was adapted to video. Her second book, JERK, published in 2022 by l'Arbre de Diane, was brought to the stage in a production that combines text, music and dance. Marées vaches, her third book of poetry, is published by Le Castor astral in 2023. Her poetry is a willing hybridization of registers and genres, seeking the limits of sensations and narratives, to give rhythm to a quest for meaning.
