'Who's Making the Rules?': Emerging Trans Voices in ComicsOC1.02, Oculus BuildingWe are delighted to announce the first event of the Sex:Queer Research Network organised in collaboration with the Warwick Comics Research Network, taking place in Week 5 of Term 2. This event is set up as a reading group led by Dr Ash Kayte Stokoe from the University of Birmingham. We will be exploring trans representations in contemporary comics, questioning their role in sustaining or disrupting the idea of the good trans object, one that 'fold[s] transness into the visual economy of existing normative media', 'minimizing the threat that transgender embodiment poses to the dominant models of gender and sex upon which realist, mediated worlds rely' (Cáel M. Keegan, 2022). We will be looking at specific comics examples. Get in touch at sex.queer.research@gmail.com to register. |
