Seam Editions are calling for creative-critical works in any form which explore, unpick, celebrate or scrutinize what it means to be a woman, to be published in an unformed anthology of feminist feeling. This will be curated by Seam Editions and guest edited by Kim Lockwood.
There is a rich tradition of defining, conceptualising, mythologizing and metaphorizing womanhood in politics, philosophy, literature and art.
We believe these efforts often fail in their ambitions to capture and portray the complexities of "woman", and that there is a vital need to expose these failures and interrogate their modes of operation.
Creative-critical work thoroughly complicates the borders between the formal and the informal, the seemingly objective and the fiercely subjective, the academic and the intimate
We believe that creative-criticism, in its acts of generic transgression and refusal of binaries and dualisms, is the ideal mode for new articulations and explorations of womanhood.
