  • Spectral Cinema & Contested Landscapes

    The Moving Image Review & Art Journal (MIRAJ) • Volume 12.2, December 2023

    This special issue of MIRAJ brings together artists and scholars around the central question of how ghosts and haunting in cinema (and beyond) can help us to critically re-evaluate society and our position within it. Linking the spectral to place, and in many cases to trauma, the works discussed consider the socio-political agency and intentionality of the more-than-human.

  • The Address from Beyond the Grave: The Female Spectral Voice

    MAI: Feminism and Visual Culture. Issue 11: Representing Women’s Realities. Summer 2023

    Video Essay with accompanying essay.

    This video essay The Address from Beyond the Grave sets out to critically explore how films can use spectrality as an experimental methodology to build believable and affective worlds that ultimately challenge hegemonic paradigms in both the construction of documentary film and the formation of historiography. These female voices speak to us from beyond the grave. They are spectres, ghosts, spirits. They are those who have died violent and unjust deaths. They are those who society has chosen not to remember.
