Bittersweet: Witnessing, Performance, Complexity
Abstract
This year, our authors consider witnessing, performance, and complexity of trauma (Kwon), mental illness (Richardson), and women artists who have been all but forgotten (Han and Weida). Witnessing can be of your own life, of others' lives, or witnessing the act of witnessing itself (Pérez, 2011). Witnessing is performed and can be especially powerful when shared with others. Performance witnessing is public pedagogy.
