Produktbeschreibung
How might performance serve as a means for facing ubiquitous trauma and pain, in humans and ecologies? While reflecting on her multidisciplinary work Systems of Pain/Networks of Resilience, artist Meghan Moe Beitiks considers bodies of knowledge in Trauma Theory, Intersectional Feminist Philosophy, Ecology, Disability Studies, New Materialism, Object-Oriented Ontology, Gender Studies, Artistic Research, Psychology, Performance Studies, Social Justice, Performance Philosophy, Performance Art, and a series of first-person interviews in an attempt to answer that question. Beitiks brings us through the first-person process of making the work and the real-life, embodied encounters with the theories explored within it as an expansion of the work itself. Facing down difficult issues like trauma, discrimination, and the vulnerability of the body, Beitiks looks to commonalities across species and disciplines as means of developing resilience and cultivating communities. Rather than paint a picture of glorious potential utopias, Beitiks takes a hard look at herself as an embodiment of the values explored in the work, and stays with the difficult, sucky, troubling, work to be done. Performing Resilience for Systemic Pain is a vulnerable book about the quiet presence and hard looking needed to shift systems away from their oppressive, destructive realities.

Rezensionen
''Performing Resilience for Systemic Pain by Meghan Moe Beitiks offers a profound exploration of pain as both individual experience and collective phenomenon. Through her artistic project "Systems of Pain/Networks of Resilience," Beitiks demonstrates how healing transcends the self, requiring community and connection. The book beautifully documents her process of interviewing survivors of painful ordeals across multiple residencies, culminating in a powerful exhibition. With its focus on observation, description, and listening, this artist book reveals how accepting pain rather than fighting it can strengthen resilience and foster collective healing through artistic expression.''
