Reading Queer Irish Performance across Live and Digital Practice
In digital age there is a “reciprocity of images and bodies during regular, multiple and multisited encounters.” (Harbison 16). Westerman asserts performance as ‘inframedium’, that is ontologically situated between life and image (Westerman n.p.). As such it is well placed to critically address the...

A l’ère du numérique, on constate « une réciprocité des images et des corps au cours de rencontres régulières, multiples et multisites » (Harbison 16). Westerman situe la performance comme « inframedium », c’est-à-dire ontologiquement placée entre la vie et l’image (Westerman, n.p.). A ce titre, elle est pertinemment située pour émettre un jugement critique sur la production de subjectivités normatives, dans le contexte d’une relation à l’image par le truchement du médium numérique radicalement accélérée et incarnée. Cet article analysera les travaux de deux artistes irlandais queer/genderqueer, Francis Fay et Day Magee, par le prisme de leurs pratiques scéniques et numériques. Utilisant ma propre lecture (dans le sillage de Jones), je cherche à mettre en avant le fait que les formats numériques et ceux des réseaux sociaux sont considérés comme acquis dans la production du sens. J’étudierai comment ces artistes se servent de l’ontologie de la pratique de la performance à l’ère numérique, pour explorer des futurités queer faisant appel à des relations sociales alternatives, qui à la fois résistent à la subjectivité normative et la remettent en question telle qu’elle est imposée par les logiques hétérosexuelles. |

In digital age there is a “reciprocity of images and bodies during regular, multiple and multisited encounters.” (Harbison 16). Westerman asserts performance as ‘inframedium’, that is ontologically situated between life and image (Westerman n.p.). As such it is well placed to critically address the production of normative subjectivities, in the context of a radically accelerated, embodied relationship to the image through digital media. This paper will explore the work of two contemporary Irish queer/genderqueer artists, Francis Fay and Day Magee, examining their work across live and digital practice. Foregrounding my own acts of reading (after Jones), I seek to mobilise the operation of taken for granted digital/social media formats in the production of meaning. I will examine how these artists utilise the ontology of performance practice in a digital age, to posit queer futurities that conjure alternative social relations, and resist and challenge normative subjectivity as fixed through heterosexual logics. |
