Blood Feather
Karla Kelsey
(Author)
Description
Poetry. An actress. A thinker. A filmmaker. Built of archives and the imagination, the three fictive women narrating BLOOD FEATHER articulate a feminist philosophy of art-making and life-making for our fractured world. Kelsey engages the given by calling on female artists of the past-Lilian Gish, Maya Deren, Maria Tallchief, and the architect Eileen Gray, among others-to join this drama of character and form. Here, structures of the past and ambitions for our future shape BLOOD FEATHER'S personae as they confirm and resist, collude with and attempt to reinvent, the cultural and personal histories that surround them.
