Oana Avasilichioaei

Some of the strands in Oana Avasilichioaei’s work traverse geography and public space (feria: a poempark, 2008), textual architecture, orality and multilingualism (We, Beasts, upcoming 2012), translation and collaborative performance (Expeditions of a Chimæra, co-written with Erín Moure, 2009). Avasilichioaei’s recent projects include transformations of text into performative, oral work, SPELLES (a chapbook/CD), The Islands (a translation of Les Îles by Quebecoise poet Louise Cotnoir, Spring 2011) and “The Mapping Issue” (co-edited with Kathleen Brown for Dandelion Magazine). She lives in Montreal.
