About this listen

We love to hate feral women. We say they’re too much of everything, not-so-subtly requesting that they minimize themselves, their voices, their existence. Rather than uplifting the characteristics that make them fierce and loyal protectors, we push them into the smallest of roles. Instead of watching in awe as they tackle the most difficult aspects of life, we ignore them. When faced with the harsh truths of their lives, we silence them.

I am done being silenced. I am done being ignored. I want to live my truths.

wild thing is an exploration of the feral nature of human beings, revealing vulnerability, heartache, confidence, and ultimately, what it’s like to be a female-presenting human doing what they need to in order to survive.
