Leaking Vessels: Issue 1

Leaking Vessels is a new platform for
writing by visual and performance artists. Moving between critical,
conversational, autobiographical, and poetic approaches, the journal entangles
theory, practice, and everyday life. For this first issue, we asked
contributors to consider the journal's title. Leaking vessels are porous sites
where bodies, histories, and ecologies are constituted and contested. The
pieces gathered here reflect on messy beds and menstrual art, ectoplasm and
uncanny figuration, obsolete currency, rematriated cultural belongings, and
more. Contributors include Juan Betancurth, Tsohil Bhatia, Agnes Borinsky, Lena
Chen, Tara Fay Coleman, Matthew Constant, Jamison Edgar, Emily Johnson, Adil
Mansoor, and Zoe Sandoval.
