“There is also a sustained focus on women’s interior worlds. Mirroring SPEEDWELL Contemporary’s commitment to women and q***r artists, the so-called feminine shapes the anthology. Hidden figures dissolve into foliage or are swallowed by the landscape. Female madness appears as a descent that carries agency rather than stigma. When Anne Sexton’s words appear, I am pulled back to my teenage years, obsessively reading her poems, underlining passages, carrying them like private scripture. Her articulation of breakdown as a form of clarity shaped me early. That intensity flickers here. The book gestures toward dancing under a full moon, but also toward acknowledging those who were pushed to the margins before us.”
