This excess combines both the civilized and the animal-istic. For my photography series the Gestation Project I choreographed groups of ten to thirty naked pregnant women in San Francisco public spaces such as the zoo, hair salons, bookstores, nightclubs, boxing rings, and empty auditoriums. The women’s pregnant bodies in community render the private explicitly public. While exploring the erasure of public spaces and our potential for reimagining our collective future, my article conjures the fertility of environmental justice within the commons. Juxtaposing bodies / body fragments with organic and synthetic materials and environments, I play with the illusory distinctions between “them” and “us.” By recognizing how vulnerability can engender a humane global culture, ecofeminist strategies for living our principles without self-censorship, we can hold ourselves accountable as the fear of perceived difference becomes more urgent in our technoeuphoric media-saturated age. A cross-cultural, interspecies approach to climate-crisis mitigation integrates individual, community, and infrastructural change. From this visceral commitment, we can cultivate regenerative economic tools for biocultural transformation, integrating rather than competing with our natural environment or isolating ourselves from it.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"41 1","pages":"192 - 207"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/FRO.2020.0034","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49319120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This artist’s statement further discusses the scarcity of experimental women-created and women-led performances that display a feminist aesthetics in the landscape of American and much of Western European theater. It argues for the imperative need to create such a theater scene that gives voice to feminist and female creativity in the full diversity of its artistic expression and that resists the corporatization of performance, turning it into another object of capitalist consumption. Ultimately, it is by both rediscovering protofeminist performances of the past and imagining a utopian feminist theater future of new ideas crafted into new forms that the dream of full gender parity in the theater can become a reality and women’s voices can have a transformative impact.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"41 1","pages":"178 - 191"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/FRO.2020.0033","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41447196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pabón-Colón","doi":"10.1353/FRO.2020.0037","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/FRO.2020.0037","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:With the 1981 publication of their now-canonical anthology This Bridge Called My Back, Gloria Anzaldúa and Cherríe Moraga placed radical women of color center stage to share their experiences of “bridging” communities divided by race, nation, sexuality, gender, and class in testimonio, critical theory, interviews, poetry, and visual art. Almost forty years later, despite the current popularity of Kimberlé Crenshaw’s intersectional feminism, feminists of color continue to bear the weight of bridgework in academia, politics, and the arts. In this essay, Pabón-Colón centers queer Korean American performance artist Diana Oh’s “solo” performance at the Ancram Opera House to examine what staging bridgework does in a performance space occupied by communities situated differently in relation to power, privilege, and oppression. Throughout Oh’s two-hour performance, their wireless headset microphone fell off of their face over a dozen times. Every time the weight of the headset exceeded the tape’s capacity to hold on a sweaty cheek, her “Love Doctors” would retape the headset, and Oh would carry on, inviting us to “hold” her “while we’re together” because now “is all we got.” The determination, patience, and acceptance Oh embodied in managing their unruly headset are read by Pabón-Colón as a testament to the enduring necessity of collective bridgework in building coalitions, even if, and especially when, they do not hold. Pabón-Colón argues that Oh’s performance staged a queer feminist of color future in the now by performing bridgework methodologically determined by care work, agency, and critique grounded in mindful presence.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"41 1","pages":"29 - 55"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/FRO.2020.0037","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66397947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Handmaid Protests cite a world where nonreproducing women are portrayed as tragic, villainous, or illegible while centering the experience of the sympathetic reproducing Handmaids. This essay argues that the Handmaid Protests traffic in biological essentialism steeped in white, cisgender feminism, where “woman” is conflated with “white woman who reproduces.” In this article, I create the neologisms “nonreproducing women” and “reproductive debility” to carve out space in feminist discourse that acknowledges women who are not becoming-mothers, which, as of yet, does not exist. From a performance studies and crip theory perspective, I challenge these performances of noninclusive feminism that pit (reproducing) women against (nonreproducing) women to imagine a world that allows for the complexity of experiences of all women whose bodies are constantly policed and politicized.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"41 1","pages":"106 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1353/FRO.2020.0039","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45376094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
