Chloe Mayne is a poet whose work moves in the realms of mothering, decoloniality and ecology. She is writing a creative doctorate at the University of the Sunshine Coast, and is a current recipient of the Marten Bequest for poetry. As a descendant of the Trawlwoolway people of north-east Tasmania, connection to place and exploration of identity are important roots of her expression.
