Introduction:
Glitchy Womyn Anthology 2022-2023
A glitch is typically considered an error, a mistake. This anthology explores how glitch can be used to guide an aesthetic, to process a thing, to make change. The women in this book demonstrate how they interpret and play with glitch in their works. The works are varied and surprising: textile to skin, ecology, collage to digital alteration. For me, a connection is unearthed here. As women, we are most familiar with concepts of error and mistake. The parameters applied to our gender performance and being have ultimately resulted in perceived error, and those mistakes have been scrutinized for years. What error did we create today? How have we been judged and even persecuted by error? What interests me is how those challenges are turned into creation. In this book, women reimagine what it is to be an error. We are empowered by art, craft even. I will always maintain the glitch is a building up.
Here you will see themes of ecology, women’s bodies, faces, skin, but the work here is not just about earthly bodies. It is a pastoral of color, texture, composition, and fire. The energy in the works represented in this anthology is undeniable.
I invite you to be a viewer in collaboration with this book, however that looks to you.
