BiographyHistory

'Jo Ward is an Australian writer living in Samford Valley, Queensland. In 2019, she created Ovidian: a collection of visual poetry that interweaves text and image in order to explore the nature of materiality and the physicality of language itself. While working on a PhD in Literature, Jo developed a chronic pain condition and turned to creative writing as a therapeutic practice. Much of her poetry grows out of her experience with chronic pain and is designed to evoke a feeling of weightlessness and ease.' (Hardie Grant, January 2022 catalogue)
