There is a tree
that dreams of me
swimming my roots
to the next universe.

MODEL: Kavon is 22, from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He is a local celebrity in Milwaukee’s art and poetry scene, performing his words at various events, writing and writing and writing his way through Milwaukee’s favorite coffee shops (Colectivo in Riverwest and Rochambo on Brady seem to be two of his faves, in case you’re in the area and want to catch him for a heart to heart). His stardom in these parts stems from his dedication and his passion, not only for writing but for the art of performance and the act of spreading poetry across the community. Kavon’s Soundcloud features him reading many of his original poems with the lovely backdrop of various types of music, and his recently published poetry book Club Noir also exemplifies his distinct perspective of Milwaukee. Today’s episode is another whose videography and photography are courtesy of Milwaukeean Jason Hillman of One Deluge. He not only filmed this beautiful short clip, but captured some behind-the-scenes and still shots that showcase his talent and unique style, which will be posted soon on the Skin on Sundays Instagram. And a special thanks to The Underground Collaborative for letting us use your amazing space for shooting the video and being such a huge support for local artists in Milwaukee!
