Erin Wilkerson: "Elegy to the Impossible Image" published by Membrana, the Slovenian photography journal
Filmmaker and TransArt PhD Practice and Research Candidate, Erin Wilkerson, has published multimedia work alongside a critical autotheory essay in Membrana, an online and print journal dedicated to intersection between theory and visual culture.
Erin Wilkerson reexamines stories of her own family history alongside histories of American settlement, as work in what Rosalyn Diprose termed, "blood writing." Her drawings of sacred indigenous landscapes destroyed in settlement are paired with photographs of family heirlooms received after the death of her great-grandmother. Forcing the question of which heirlooms we too will leave, both intended and not.
