About us

the6ress is a curator of creative curios. We adore, promote and publish the weird and wonderful work of artists and poets that melt the minds of the mainstream 

Emma is a published poet and head of design for three international art fairs showing in 15 cities worldwide; including London, Basel, New York and Hong Kong. She hoards poetry and art that is ravishing, rousing and eternal. Her brain is a house with collapsed floors, but her door is always open. Come in!

Katharine is a published poet and zine addict. A qualified lawyer, her day job is in TV production but by night she scribbles poems and runs a writing group and poetry press. This year her work will feature in an anthology published by Trapeze.


Our founders, Emma Dakeyne and Katharine Perry talk us through the first zine published by the6ress ‘An Echo in the Heart Cave’
