March Interjection: Beauty from Below: Heaux Cosmetics and the Power of Pheromones – Eilidh Duffy

Eilidh Duffy is an editor, researcher and critic who is obsessed with dress and the body and its relationship to social and political upheaval both historically and in the present day. She’s written a fair bit for style titles in the UK (how she makes most of her money) while producing essays for journals and galleries (for less money but significantly more fun). She edits-slash-curates the fashion history journal-slash-project Bog # which is currently ‘on ice’ while she finishes her MA in the History of Design at the RCA/V&A. One day she will make a website where you can see all of her work in one place but for now she is working out how to make one.

From the WR archive: Stepping Off the Flyover – Enya Ettershank 

Enya Ettershank works in text and radio. Her work largely mixes the mundane with the hallucinationary. It is underscored with a flaneuse-esq tone that looks at how we are transformed by each other: politically, creatively, socially and emotionally. She is also the founder of the experimental radio station No Bounds Radio [removed]

Join us for the EU tour of Prepositions by Timmy Simonds and Aaron Lehman in Hamburg, Brussels, Paris and London

Prepositions enacts the distinction between what language says and what it does. Through a catalogue of exercises, interviews, essays and creative explorations, this workbook-compendium invites us to investigate how we practise empathy, understanding, and contact, by learning and teaching all at once.

Featuring performances by Timmy Simonds and Aaron Lehman, the Prepositions EU Tour will commence at Chess Club in Hamburg on the 22nd March from 7pm. We’ll be at rile* books in Brussels on the 23rd March from 5pm, and at After 8 in Paris on the 25th of March from 7pm. We’ll close out the tour with An Evening with Montez Press at the ICA in London on the 26th of March from 7pm, featuring special performances by CAConrad, SoiL Thornton, and Timmy Simonds & Aaron [removed];

Please note the ICA x Montez Press event is ticketed. Concession prices are available, along with the option to purchase Prepositions and Pay it Forward at a discounted rate. Get your tickets in the link below to avoid missing [removed];
