August 2025: Recipient 59, Summer Moraes
The 59th recipient of the working class creatives grant is Summer Moraes! Summer sent in some short stories that went down easy, but not too easy, like the good sting after eye drops. Long time readers of The White Pube will look at Summer’s work and see exactly why we like her stuff – the horror, the humour, the body as endlessly alienating material. what else is there in life! We are glad to have the grant to back the art we want to see in the world and more sicko writing is exactly what we need.
BIO: Summer Moraes is a London-based multidisciplinary artist working primarily through writing, performance and illustration. Under the name Mother Of The Insane, she creates wacky short stories filled with horror, surrealism and absurdity. Her live readings often take the shape of immersive performances, using props to blur the line between literature and theatre. She hosts the WORMS magazine podcast and writes the agony column Dear Mother Of The Insane.
