About

Antonia Pont is a widely published author of fiction, essay, poetry and theory. She is interested in questions of time, atmosphere, weather, transformation, memory, unknowing and the future. She has made work for exhibition and performance, as well as collaborating on local and international artistic projects. She is fascinated by how we become unrecognisable to ourselves, for better or worse, by desire, by connectedness and the portals within stillness. A long time worker with movement and the body, she writes and thinks in parallel with a yoga practice, and is the founder of Vijnana Yoga Australia (est. 2009). She is Associate Professor at Deakin University, where she has the privilege of learning with scholars, makers and activists of all kinds. She lives with gratitude on unceded Wurundjeri Country. Se
