🎤 Join us for our first night of open mic poetry for the year in the gallery with feature poet Sal/Sam.
Sal/Sam lives in Brisbane and shares spoken word shaped by lived experience, introspection and the quiet work of mindset. His writing emerges from real moments; the internal negotiations, the pauses and the things that don’t always arrive with neat conclusions.
He is the founder of live storytelling company EVRY1, a space built around human connection through true stories told live and in person, outside of algorithms, performance polish, or the pull of the feed. The stories at these shows focus strongly on mental health survival, but anything is allowed to be said, so long as it’s honest. Much like what he is building there, his spoken word favours presence over projection and honesty over refinement.
A graduate of QUT Creative Industries, Sam continues to navigate life with integrity and honesty as his compass, using language as a way to listen more closely, to himself, and to the room.
Sam wishes to be better in every area of his life. He wants to connect with other people in deep ways. He wants to look back with a smile.

Here’s to 7 years of sobriety, more family, more friends, more nature, more sillyness, failing, blossoming, to playing to express never to Impress and to living life full tilt-unhindered by life curdling smutt #boycottai
