Season Butler is a writer, dramaturg and artist working with performance, installation and text composition. Her writing, research and performance practices centre around intersectionality and narratives of otherness, isolation and the end of the world as it shifts from a speculative concern to a realist one. In 2014, Season won second place in the SI Leeds Prize for novels by Black and Asian women, and was awarded the Live Art UK Diverse Actions Leadership Bursary in 2017. She is a member of I’m With You, a collective concerned with performance, queer domesticity and gesturing toward a wily future, and an associate artist of Somerset House Studios. Her debut novel, Cygnet, will be published by Dialogue Books (UK) and Harper Collins (US) in spring 2019.
