Piece of an Article from Joanna Walsh's Theory of Style column at Spike Art Magazine. This is from On Texture: “The coat has no price but it has a description. It’s a “Coat in cream glossy viscose twill with all-over hand-combed embroidery. The coat has elongated bell sleeves. Close-fitting at the top of half of the body, full from the waist down. Textured surface.” In queer theorist Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick’s 1997 critical anthology Novel Gazing, Renu Bora proposed “texxture” as an interface for interchange, a space in which one object can affect another – in which people become things and objects touch back. These “surfaces” aren’t experienced by the senses but via writing, an invitation to feel (both physically and emotionally) via what I’d call “text objects” – adjective and adverb-laden passages that suggest a person or an object’s capacity to carry affect. This process creates an interface between the reader and writer for feelings that have often been kept in the literal closet. Bora claims these sensual descriptions as profoundly queer.”
How wonderful it is that we can wear our own/ persons words and apply our meaning/carry someone else’s. a shirt can be a Text Box. wow
