Autorenporträt

DL Williams is a deaf queer poet working with British Sign Language and English. Working with such different languages has inspired a deep interest in translation and how her work can be made accessible to signing and non-signing audiences. They have performed around the UK including at the Scottish Storytelling Centre, Wales Millennium Centre, the Barbican and the Albert Hall, as well as in America and Brazil. She has most recently been published in 'What Meets the Eye?' an anthology of deaf poets (2021) and Modern Poetry in Translation (2022). Their poems cover many themes, from identity to bilingualism to their beloved cats and as she says: "I aim to make my work accessible to everyone; whether you enjoy it or not is another matter!"
