A Taste of Interfictions 2

“This is a story about a man who ties a woman to his bed. No, it's not what you think, he says. Please understand. But how can he explain? All those nights his wife turns into other things. Would anyone believe him?

He should have known the first time he saw her, he thinks: her waves of dark hair spilling down her back, her torn jeans, her look of fuck you too, her scent of wet leaves, sweat, and dirt. It made him horny. What else can he say?”
From: The Marriage by Nin Andrews

Auction #31: Write. Appropriate. Remix. Transform.

December 2nd, 2009

What He Said
by Mia Nutick

Ceramic pendant, pink wash on pink and silver.

Based On:
“On the Pleasures of Not Belonging” by Henry Jenkins (Introduction to Interfictions 2)

This auction has ended. Thanks to everyone who bid. Please check the front page for more auctions, going on through the first week of December, 2009.

Chimera Fancies are wearable poetry made of old recycled fairy tale books made into new art, my own chosen interstitial art form. For this auction I used an ARC of Interfictions 2, so the text on these pieces is both taken from and inspired by the stories themselves.

“What He Said” is taken from the introduction to Interfictions 2 by Henry Jenkins, “On the Pleasures of Not Belonging”. Jenkins discusses what interstitiality means to him and to others so beautifully here, I wanted to make something to capture this idea. As he said, “Write. Appropriate. Remix. Transform.” Let’s all not belong together.
