TO READ A BODY OPEN: AUTOTHEORY AND THE ARCHIVE<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Combining personal narrative with readings of primary texts and archival research, To Read a Body Open<\/em> is a collection of autotheoretical essays about coming into creative and political self-awareness via readings of several writers whose work has influenced that process: Virginia Woolf, Djuna Barnes, Zora Neale Hurston, Audre Lorde, Tee Corinne, Clarice Lispector, and Kathy Acker, to name a few. The essays are experimental in their form and methods: I am positioning my body as a living archive alongside official and unofficial archives of these writers. Drawing on the felt experience of being in <\/em>the archive, the essays formally reflect readings of these writers\u2019 works and lives. Throughout, I encounter their art and the archive as ritual and as reckoning with the unstable place of queer female embodiment and the ideological underpinnings of my racialized subjectivity. These essays offer a fierce, intimate look at our reading practices as embodied life experiences, based on positionality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this talk, I will offer some of my thinking around autotheory and the archive, as well as a short performance from an essay in progress.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
