WatchPeopleDie.TV: Trans Death and Embodiment
In a time of widespread conservatism, watchpeople die.TV: Trans Death and Embodiment is not only unapologetically trans but challenges and transcends transphobic vitriol to create urgent and powerful work.
“This written portion was made from performing an erasure poem on the text of the sourced transphobic comments and then commenting on the erased words. The text is intended as a performance text. What this means is that I think of the text as not just a documentation of a performance but a performance itself.”
watchpeopledie.tv contains writing from watchpeopledie.TV (2025), performed as part of the 2025 VCUarts MFA Thesis exhibition that was on view April 11, 2025, to May 11, 2025, at The Anderson Gallery in Richmond, VA.
