Amy Cutler is a geographer, poet, and film-maker who creates films, live cinema events and live music around dark ecologies, pathetic fallacies, and disquieting animals and landscapes. She created the film series for Delphine Dora’s Eudaimon cycle of Kathleen Raine poems (2018), and she most regularly performs with multi-instrumentalist Sylvia Hallett, with their sets – ‘you, the stingbearers’ and ‘my bird and the love-time lost’ – drawing on natural history texts, from Jean Henri-Fabre’s insect writing to Anglo-Saxon elegies about migrating birds. Other musical compositions have included converting cobwebs into scores for improvisation, an episode of BBC3’s Late Junction themed around forest ecology (June 2018), created with field recordist Lee Patterson and the string trio Barrel, and “LET’S DO AN ANIMAL POEM!”, an episode on Resonance FM (July 2018) using soundbites sourced from archival nature broadcasts. She works with musicians and sound artists including The Left Outsides, Folklore Tapes, Leafcutter John, Bridget Hayden, Richard Skelton, Delphine Dora, Josephine Foster, Ivor Kallin, Benn Vince, and Phil Minton. Her next poetry book is forthcoming from Guillemot Press, and focusses on nature's femme fatales.
