Sophia Giovannitti is a writer and artist based in New York with a practice invested in power, devotion, and manipulation. She works across mediums including lecture-performance, contracts, and video. Her work has appeared in, at, or with Triple Canopy, The New Inquiry, n+1, ICA (London), Blade Study (New York), Recess (Brooklyn), the Athens Biennale, among others.
Highly original and unnervingly smart, Working Girl strips bare the worlds of art work and sex work, revealing unlikely parallels. In Giovannitti's informed and elegant analysis, sex and art come soaked in capitalist relations, their potential for holiness no barrier to the all-encompassing reach of commodification. Working Girl is fascinating in its specificity - the product of Giovannitti's lived experience in a particular niche of both industries - and through this comes a treatise that is both hopeful and new. Frankie Miren, author of The Service
