52. Kimberly Campanello in conversation with Adam Hanna (20 June 2024)
In her conversation with Adam Hanna, Kimberly Campanello reads from and discusses her poetry-object MOTHERBABYHOME (2019). She talks about the path that led to the work and the composition process; the use of reports in her work and how this influenced its form; empty spaces and subtraction; the difficulty of performing the work and how it affects her; and the responses from survivors.
