in Body and Religion Interdisciplinary Journal
Editors Dr. Wesley N. Barker and Dr. Emily Holmes
Summary: My essay and presentation focus on my Irigarayan-inspired performative photographs that reimagine body-spirit relations. I frame the creative exploration of my Sephardic Jewish identity as an embodiment of Irigaray’s mother-daughter idiom.
In acknowledgment of the 50th anniversary of the publication of Speculum (Les Editions de Minuit, 1974), the journal of Body and Religion is working on a special issue to explore the questions of embodiment generated by Irigaray’s philosophical, political, pedagogical, and theological engagements, and to consider their significance for religion and religious studies more broadly.
