Skylah Ginette is a feral mountain fairy, raised in the wilds of B.C. She spent a lot of time talking to herself when she was growing up, playing with words while the world whirled around her. Skylah decided to risk life as a starving artist, determined to make a living by loving in poetry. As she found herself distributing writing at random throughout her hometown and travels, she began to call herself The Poetry Elf. This magical character has become part of Ginette, influencing her writing and performance art.
Skylah is well known for poetry slams/spoken word performances, as well as her unique take on burlesque. She’s performed across BC and Alberta and is the founder of The Poetry Burlesque.
