about the artist and poet

Hayley Fionna is a poet, artist, and founder of Poésie Perdue, a slow-living art and poetry project that celebrates love, memory, and the beauty of things left behind. Through mailed poems, hand-touched prints, and nostalgic design, Hayley invites readers to pause—to rediscover the intimacy of words that travel by post. Her work blends English and French, exploring what it means to be known, to belong, and to build a family through art and story.
