J. Sybylla Smith, In Conversation with Elizabeth Clark Libert

Elizabeth Clark Libert's bold diaristic conversation with herself is a reckoning with a twenty years old sexual trauma and its impact on raising her school-age sons. Boy Crazy is a masterfully designed melange of self-portraits, environmental portraits, seasonal landscapes and family photos. Interspersed in a searingly honest staccato manner are intimate musings, email correspondence with her perpetrator and snippets of pointed conversation with her sons.  In this conversation, Elizabeth discusses, among other things: Art as process Reclaiming agency following sexual trauma Shooting through ambivalence Lyricism and raw emotion  Giving context Collaboration Being in conversation with your work Wasabi writing Finding the structure of the book Experimenting and refining Asymmetry Visualizing  Generating change and opening hard conversations  Being brave together Visit my website for a full list of resources.
