Last week saw the collaborative BAMS/MSA Weird Modernisms conference in Loughborough! It was such a pleasure to get to meet my fellow BAMS reps, new friends and colleagues, and to hear about their amazing (and weird!) research. A huge thank you to the Loughborough team for all their work ❤️

Presenting my first conference paper wasn’t as scary as I had thought! Such a great time speaking about Mina Loy’s ‘Surreal Scene’ and her concerns over the use of women’s bodies in art. Thank you @annadevs.bsky.social and @david-strong.bsky.social for such a brilliant day all about Collective Forms

Wishing everyone a very happy Bloomsday! Rejoyce!

For today’s #ModWrite I’m looking at some (slightly disturbing) 1920s wax mannequins in relation to Mina Loy’s concerns over women, the face, aging, and creativity. These ones are melting in a window on a summers day
