Event overview
Chris Girard
Chris Girard explores textual embodiment through Lady/Applicant: The Lazarus which is a multimedia installation and experiment in new media poetics that strategically re-imagines the authorial identity of renowned confessional poet Sylvia Plath. By presenting collaged audio and video recordings of audio and places associated with her poetry, the project radically questions the power traditionally associated with the author. Plath continues to be cast as a depressed wife and mother; the imperatives of this role still weighing heavy upon the production of her biography and the reception of her work. The collaging of audio and video clips reembodies Plath as an omnipresent ghost and shifts meaning away from an exclusive association with the tragically depressed, the pathologized Plath.
