Angella O'Brien

Angella Ella O Brien is a performance poet and author from St. Lucia. Through her brand, Ella's Artistry, she has delivered local performances at the St. Lucia Jazz and Arts Festival and other national events. Internationally, she has represented St. Lucia at the 40 Poetry Market in Paris, France through UNESCO recognition and at the Bridgetown International Arts Festival in Barbados.

O'Brien's poetry captures life experiences that her readers can relate to. Her performances fuse acoustics, costume, and dance to retain the audience's attention. In 2023, she launched her chapbook “Poetic Keepsake”, which covers three themes namely: Brazen, Art of Life and Saint Lucia; Saint Lucia; Plas Kwéyòl.

In addition, O'Brien hosts signature poetry events namely “Poetry Escape” & “Poetic Keepsake School Tour”, which contributes to the development of poetry in her country by making it more accessible, as they benefit from the knowledge shared by herself and other poets.
