Clementine Edwards (DAI, 2018) launches a new publication in collaboration with Joe Miranda, at Same Page Art Book Fair, Melbourne on 19-20th October 2024. The publication combines Clementine's fiction writing with Joe Miranda's photographs and design. Clementine also has instigated a series of monthly reading groups on science-fiction in translation at Rib in Rotterdam in November and December. Participants will pay attention to how texts build worlds – anticipating, challenging and enacting lived realities – and how they move in different temporal and cultural contexts. A motivation for the reading group is to explore ways of putting language to experience of queer life while keeping the experience and the learning that comes with it soft, impressionable, with a possibility of spill.
