Like a game, in response to artist Lauren Coullard’s twelve figurative collages (2022—2024), writer Lillian Davies’s twelve word collages shuffle citations from her work as a writer and mother. Her essay “Hybrid Super° Heroines” explores the history & disruptive potential of the intimate medium of collage, and fragments of Coullard and Davies’s recent exchanges appear in “Transcribble Conversations.”

A Readings Index, Collage Reference Index and a Paintings Index reveal lines of research. Part of a series that includes Playgrounds (Drawing is Free Press, 2023) and Portraits (2023), at its core, this book is a reflection on creative production, as well as the interruptions, distractions and transformations that bring it to life.

“Feminism as a method for art historians and critics ... demands more complex modes of knowing by encouraging us to always situate ourselves in specific historical, cultural and economic contexts, and thus to generate knowledge from concrete, gendered everyday experiences.” *Jacqueline Millner and Catriona Moore, Contemporary Art & Feminism, Routledge, 2022. p.4
