The Evelope Residency

"This transition to a new age requires a change in our perception and conception of space-time, the inhabiting of places , and of containers, or envelopes of identities"

- Luce Irigaray


The Feminist Salon is a group of artists, writers and performers who meet regularly to read and discuss the texts of French theorists working in and around issues of contemporary psychoanalytic discourse, philosophy and constructions of ‘the feminine’. The Envelope residency at the West Wing is inspired by Luce Irigaray’s thoughtful, poetic and ultimately empowering proposition of ‘The Envelope’ as a space where identity, desire, sexuality and meaning can be constructed. The week long residency will engage this new space and the public with numerous possibilities of discussion, sensorial experience, performance, film, sound and visual art.
