About this Event
A workshop on practice-led theory. We'll be thinking-feeling-sensing theory together and writing collectively with our guts. Please bring along something to write with and be ready to participate in eating, writing exercises, and conversation.
Lindsay Kelley:
Working in the kitchen, Lindsay Kelley’s art practice and scholarship explore how the experience of eating changes when technologies are being eaten. Her first book, Bioart Kitchen: Art, Feminism and Technoscience (London: IB Tauris, 2016, reissued 2022), considers the kitchen as a site of knowledge production for art and science. Her second book, After Eating: Metabolizing the Arts (MIT Press, 2023) claims digestion and metabolism as key cultural, creative, and political processes. She is Associate Professor and Head of Sculpture and Spatial Practice at the Australian National University School of Art & Design.
Astrida Neimanis:
Astrida Neimanis writes at the intersection of feminism and environmental change, with a focus on weather, water, and bodies. Often in collaboration with artists, scientists, poets, and teachers across various communities, their current projects explore the biodiversity of gender, and how climate change feels. They currently live and work on unceded syilx territories, where they are Associate Professor and Canada Research Chair in Feminist Environmental Humanities at UBC Okanagan, and Director of the FEELed Lab.
