'RITUAL FRACTURE': DISMANTLING PATRIARCHAL HIERARCHIES THROUGH A QUEER, ANTI-CASTE, ECOFEMINIST RITUAL POETICS

《仪式断裂》是一个混合项目(文本、视听诗歌、自传)，运用女权主义和生态批评的观点(非人类角色、生态换位)来探索印度教仪式如何在南印度维护基于种姓的暴力父权制。在三幕中，这本书跟随卡莉，一个高种姓的酷儿女人，从喀拉拉邦的橡胶种植园到伦敦的一个非一夫一妻制的公寓。卡利改变了仪式的方向，释放了他们治疗和抵抗的能力。这个项目沿着迁徙路线，通过种姓特权的镜头，探索代际创伤的变形方面。它批判性地考虑了仪式、右翼父权制和我们居住的身体和空间之间的联系。

'Ritual Fracture', a hybrid project (text, audio-visual poetry, autofiction) deploys feminist and eco-critical perspectives (non-human characters, ecological transpositions) to explore how Hindu rituals uphold violent caste-based patriarchy in South India. In three Acts, the book follows Kali, an upper-caste queer woman from a rubber-plantation in Kerala to a non-monogamous flatshare in London. Kali queers and re-orients rituals, unlocking their capacity for healing and resistance. This project explores transmuting facets of intergenerational trauma, along migratory routes, and through a caste-privileged lens. It critically considers the connection between rituals, right-wing patriarchy, and the bodies and spaces we inhabit.
