And perhaps my favorite conference ephemera, a postcard that announces the launch of the new journal Feminist Art Practices and Research: Cosmos, handed by the founding editor Basia Sliwinska. On the cover is Grit (2023) by Sera Waters.

Yesterday, I presented my paper "Rather a Jinn Than a Cyborg" at the 114th Annual CAA conference in Chicago! A huge gratitude for my panel's co-organizers, the wonderful Judith Brodsky and Ferris Olin, for including my work and engaging with a lively conversation on embodiment and feminist art.

TWINLESS is such a well-written film with an intriguing premise and it reminded me so much of Mike White's CHUCK & BUCK (2000), especially how both films deal with queer loneliness and its bitter ends. James Sweeney was good but Dylan O'Brien steals the show for me.

Returning to Ann Arbor to wrap up the semester after an incredible time in SCMS is surely a challenge.

I'm teaching in a VERY small classroom this term and me and my students are about to rival The Drew Barrymore Show in having the most unnecessarily intimate conversations.

This article draws upon Elizabeth Grosz's corporeal feminism to understand how artists like Mona Hatoum and Amal Kenawy situate the female corporeality as a topographical map. You may access the article and the rest of the issue through your institutional libraries!
