River Sutaria

River Sutaria

River Sutaria (formerly known as Jharna) is a spoken-word performer and creative writer. They were introduced to slam poetry during their freshman year of high school and have been sharpening their craft ever since. River’s writing style, heavily influenced by Blythe Baird, Sarah Dessen, Amber Smith, and Carmen Maria Machado, is a kaleidoscope of haunting confessions, vivid imagery, and poetic metaphors. It is through sharing their intimate pieces of work that the twenty-four-year-old poet encourages others to use their voice. River’s personal ties to mental health, sexual assault, and transphobia have led them to creatively advocate for the various social issues that they survived.
