LAST(ING)
Our Current Issue
An edition accrues over time. The etymological underpinnings of the term ‘edition’ gesture at acts of ‘giving’, ‘producing’, or ‘bringing forth’, doing so ‘out of’ or ‘from within’ bodies and repositories of people, ideas and images. Last(ing) has been several years in the making, starting from murmurs in 2020, to a proposal in 2021, and finally, an edition with 12 works spanning writing, video, and photographs in 2022. What it has meant to us has changed constantly; imagined in a shaky post-pandemic moment, it now manifests as the intention to endure, to remain, to leave traces. To last, leakily.
About Us
Indent: The Body and the Performative is a research and practice-based journal adding to the critical discourse around performance practices in South Asia. As an open access, online and peer-reviewed journal, Indent draws great inspiration from notions of the archive - a term that tantalisingly suggests the urge to gather, accumulate, assemble, towards the possibility of bearing witness to constellations of questions, provocations, and processes.
