Performing a Lifetime, 2020
A book exploring bodies and identities belonging to the in-between.
Saara Mahbouba and Gladys Camilo reflect on the complications of navigating
between accurate representation of oneself and one’s community and the traps
of performativity, appropriation, and self-exploitation.
Exploring the complexities of working ethically in a contemporary artscene that
simultaneously lauds and punishes otherness, Performing a Lifetime taps into the artists’
personalexperiences of embodying identities that are neither fully within nor without categories
of otherness and hegemonic bodies.
