performance writing

Exploring how to straddle and blur the boundaries between art, activism, philosophy, poetry, and anthropology, amongst other (un)disciplines, Huge Sillytoe is in a continual process of considering how to combine action and performance with reflection and writing. In this vein Huge is engaged in ongoing experiments with performance writing or writing as a performance in itself, turning the traditionally private, solitary act of academic text inscription into a public, sometimes participatory intervention. Huge was able to develop this practice especially whilst undertaking an ‘office hours’ residency at Grace Exhibition Space in 2019, detailed in greater depth here.
