Just received my copy of animaladies, too soon to be able to re-read my essay, but looking forward to reading the other contributions to this exciting book.
Quite thrilled to be included in the line up for WEAD’s online exhibition feminist tEChnOart, thanks to curator/artist Isabella La Rocca.
Thrilled to be in such great company in this special edition of the Animal Studies Journal on Dairy. My paper discusses my current research and work in progress ‘bloodlines’. Download a copy.
The program is out, the book ‘animaladies’ is printed and ready to be launched at Animaladies II. I’m really looking forward to speaking about the developments in my work – ‘bloodlines: tracing paths from bodies to biotechnologies’.
It’s an amazing line up and I’m really proud to be an invited speaker among these scholars.
A short artist profile on my work ‘Skin and flesh’ features in Matter Matters: Surfaces, Antennae The Journal of Nature in Visual Culture, issue no. 43. Here’s some screen shots – the article can be freely downloaded here http://www.antennae.org.uk/
Really love the design of this full cover – with boobscape wrapping around the spine. I’m very excited for this book to be launched at Animaladies II, University of Wollongong, in December 2018, where I’ll also be an invited speaker – talking about my propositional new artwork: ‘porous boundaries: mammalian motherhood, biotechnologies and other entanglements’ which will be published in the Animal Studies Journal later in the year (hopefully). This book features an amazing line up of writings by scholars, artists, creative writers etc. See: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/animaladies-9781501342165/ for the table of contents.
often my projects take on the issue of ‘wearables’ both as a performative act, and also to comment on the use of animals and their bodies in the fashion industry.
