" What can loss give us? "
" How do practices of ressurrection and necromancy act to rewrite endings? "

REGISTER HERE

In loss, there is transformation.  Despite the thought that endings entail an absolute departure from “potentiality”, it is in endings, in losses, that we find some of the most obscured parts of ourselves. Death, an ever lingering loss, brings us to important divinations around what it was to be our tender selves. What we find in tenderness absent, are transformational sites in need of necromancy. And when conjuring may not be potent enough to harness certain chances at transformation, the dream of resurrection emerges to reanimate flesh in a bid to restart narratives.  These narratives and knowledge are what bring us to spaces between the known and unknowns of history.
