On the “City Lights” series “Speaking of Poetry,” Atlanta’s most prolific wordsmiths discuss the art of evoking emotions with words. This edition of “Speaking of Poetry” features multidisciplinary artist and spoken word poet She Pharaoh.
“I’m known for being a very vibrant and colorful individual. I love bright colors and storytelling,” Pharaoh said.
Pharaoh hails originally from Savannah but now considers herself to be an Atlantan. “I hated it at first, but I found my voice, and when I found my voice, I found my tribe, and Atlanta has influenced my poetry in more ways that I can even articulate in all honesty,” she said.
More can be found on Pharaoh at her website here and her Instagram here.
