Giving ground : a personal account of voice, movement and femininity in Texas

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

My work springs from the place where my body touches Texas. In my thesis report I attempt to lay out my embodied experience of living here and how this intersects with phenomenology and Butler’s theory of the displaced feminine, whilst describing some of the work I have made in response to these experiences. I will talk about, body, voice, ground, femininity, movement and animation, excavating the common threads and desires that run through my work.
