Aurora Mattia is drawn to dim lights, velvet eyelashes, kaleidoscopes, semicolons, silk draping, cemeteries, and the blank page. She falls into mutual deep infatuation with relative speed because she dives straight to the heart of matters in intimate conversations. Her influences range from the Psalms to the psych ward. She loves Lucinda Williams, Li Bai, Townes van Zandt, the Tarot, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, Woolf, Glissant, and Bluebonnets. She thinks about Texas every day. She lives in Brooklyn.
