Hey there you!

My name is Hadassah Hill, and I'm a writer, textile artist and event curator.

And my name is also Axon D'Luxe and I'm a performance artist, activist and musician.

If you made it to my site you surely know that I like to go on about science, sex, the 1950's and queers, because I love them all equally; or that I like to hate on the fake-ass war which oppressed people in this country are dying in to keep the real death - oil money - flowing to the privileged politicians. But in case you didn't, there it is.

Curious? Visit the overly-detailed About page.

Obsessed? Join my mailing list for occasional emails about upcoming shows and events.
