Hi! My name is Ty!
I think it’s interesting what people think and say about us compared to what we think and say about ourselves. I also think it’s interesting that despite having a lifelong love affair with words, I become all clammy and silly when trying to string them up as a banner for who I am. It’s as if, all of a sudden, I don’t remember who I am. I don’t recall all the little brushstrokes that bleed together, creating my portrait.
So maybe together—words upon words, aligned in no particular order—we’ll discover who the bloody hell I am.
Love,
Ty
About
British-born and now living in the United States, Ty Tzavrinou is a storyteller, historian, artist, and spiritual practitioner whose work lives somewhere between language, memory, identity, and the unseen.
Words have been a lifelong friend. Through essays, poetry, historical reflection, and deeply personal prose, Ty explores the complicated terrain of womanhood, belonging, grief, spirituality, memory, and becoming. She is drawn to the things that linger beneath the obvious—the stories we inherit, the lives we might have lived, the truths we carry quietly, and the strange, beautiful ways we find ourselves again.
“Ty’s passion doesn’t stay confined to a canvas or page; it tends to spill into other dimensions.”
-Kat Bishop, author of Pony
