Porsha Olayiwola<\/strong> is the 2014 Individual World Poetry Slam Champion and 2015 National Poetry Slam Champion. Black, poet, queer-dyke, hip-hop feminist, womanist: Porsha is a native of Chicago who now resides in Boston where she organizes, writes, and teaches. Porsha co-founded The House Slam, Boston\u2019s first poetry slam venue, and coaches their award-winning poetry slam team. In 2018, Porsha was named by GK100 as one of Boston\u2019s Most Influential People of Color. She is the Artistic Director at MassLEAP, a literary non-profit organization in Massachusetts serving youth artists.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Porsha Olayiwola is a first-year MFA in Creative Writing Poetry Student. Her most recent project explores blackness using various intersections of performance, spoken word, narrative, and memory. Porsha\u2019s project, entitled, \u201cBlack and Ugly As Ever\u201d is a choreopoem that explores \u201c<\/span>what it means to truly make space for oneself.<\/span><\/a>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Read her commentary about the project and how her experience at Emerson<\/a> shaped her experience:<\/span><\/p>\n

What was the most challenging part of this project?<\/b><\/p>\n

While I thought my answer might initially be self-production, I must say the most challenging part of the project was time. Time without limit nor financial strain is the most valuable and rare resource, I found. As an organizer, student, educator, and arts organization leader, I find it extremely difficult to carve out time for my own art. \u00a0The same was true for time spent working on the project <\/span>Black & Ugly as Ever.<\/span><\/i> Luckily, I got a bit of funding and was able to take myself on a few writing retreats in New England before the summer began<\/span><\/p>\n

How did Emerson help you, if at all, cultivate this project?<\/b><\/p>\n

Well, the thing is, I had only been an official member of Emerson’s community for a short period of time. \u00a0In fact, I enrolled in Emerson a little under a month before the release date of Black & Ugly as Ever. However, though the overlap brief, it was pretty monumental to attend Emerson as soon as I was diving into the performance aspect of the choreopoem. And so, I was able to book some of the rehearsal spaces nearly every day for a few hours at a time. \u00a0It allowed me the solitude, the time, the space to really get into the meat, and<\/span> duende<\/span><\/i> of my performance. In fact, Emerson probably provided one of the other necessary and rare resources for artists; studio and rehearsal space.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is there anything you’re learning in your MFA program that has helped you cultivate or reflect on the impact of this show?<\/b><\/p>\n

If I can be honest, I must say I have yet to truly unpack the show and its impact. \u00a0It is something I am constantly thinking about and needing and wanting to reflect, slowly and carefully, upon. \u00a0I will say though, I’ve been reading about the <\/span>duende<\/span><\/i>, via Pablo Medina’s course and thinking a lot about the role of the institution in my work, the role of my own “natural talent,” and the ways in which I can tap into my own<\/span> duende <\/span><\/i>via the performance of Black & Ugly as Ever, as it is an intimate and vulnerable exploration of self. <\/span><\/p>\n

Porsha<\/span><\/a> performed three runs of her choreopoem, each with a sold-out audience, at the beginning of October 2018.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
