JANE SHI (with photography by Eric Tsui)
Jane Shi is an editor at The Garden Statuary and The Talon UBC. She currently lives on Kingsway, a thoroughfare occupying an Indigenous trail of the unceded, traditional, and ancestral territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. Her family and ancestors are from Zhoushan and Pujiang; she was born in Nanjing, Jiangsu province and came to live in Richmond, BC a year before she began writing. Poetry will always be both weapon and shelter for her, a matter of survival.
