Recasting Unfinished Selves: PERFORMANCE/ LECTURE
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
 

Part performance, part film and part conference paper, Recasting Unfinished Selves unfolds the planes of conceptual intensity evoked in my recent research, which intersects experimental cinema, performance art, fiction and philosophy. The presentation begins through an evocation of the amorphous identities of two women whose presence leaves its trace inside my recent dance film Mondo Ghillies (2010). Embedded within different narratives, sequences and events, these characters are different versions of the self that I became after sustaining severe brain trauma.
