Belle Butler is a writer, a musician and project photographer. Her fiction has appeared in numerous literary journals and her novel manuscript, 'River', has received a number of awards. She was most recently awarded the WestWords Emerging Writers Fellowship for 'River' and was paired with mentor Delia Falconer. She is also a writer for the Blue Mountains based Planetary Health Initiative. In the music department, Belle has released two singles: 'I Am She' and 'Quick.' 'I Am She' was her response to personal and witnessed misogyny and gender-based violence and abuse. 'Quick', while less confronting, was no less personal. 'Quick' is about change, and the loss, grief, nostalgia, resistance and acceptance that comes with it. Belle often plays with photography to compliment her written and musical projects. She received a grant from The Seed to create a photo-narrative, 'Intersections,' about Sydney's street corner windscreen washers. Most recently, she created a stop motion video out of leaves to go with her single, 'Quick.'
