Description

<p dir="ltr">This is the third iteration of <i>Borderlinks</i>, a process that expands drawing as performance and defined as<del> Drawing in the Expanded Field.</del> The process first expanded from drawing on paper into drawing as performance during a meeting of the Drawing Research Group at Loughborough University in 2025 and is called <i>Borderlinks 1. </i><i>Borderlinks 2 </i>followed as part of the Drawing Lab initiative at The Fine Art Deptartment at Loughborough University and this is the third iteration as-part of this research which I have written about in (Vol I, Ch 3.3).</p><p dir="ltr"><i>Borderlinks </i>was informed by Bracha L. Ettinger's <i>Matrixial Borderspace </i>and the final unpunctuated episode of James Joyce’s <i>Ulysses,</i> written in a stream-of-consciousness style for the main female character, Molly Bloom.

This practice-based research questions how the <i>Matrixial Borderspace</i> can encounter <i>Ulysses</i> through Molly Bloom. James Joyce's canonical modernist novel was published in 1922, and its final unpunctuated episode is a site of feminist intervention in the book.</p><p dir="ltr">The performance set remains the same as for <i>Borderlinks 2</i> and contains drawings as transtext objects (a term from Ettinger’s matrixial theory), written about in the thesis (Vol I, Ch 3.3), and listed as follows:-</p><p dir="ltr">(1).

Text from The Matrixial Borderspace as collages and drawings behind the performer are written about in Vol 1, Ch. 3.3, and in Vol II, P/folio 9, Figs 71-83)</p><p dir="ltr">(2). Molly's soliloquy from <i>Ulysses</i> is presented in different forms derived from drawing processes discussed in (Vol 1, Ch. 3.3) and including the whole text of <i>Ulysses embedded </i>in the <i>Sodabreadbookobject</i>. It is written about in (Vol. 1, Ch.33) with visuals in (Vol II, Portfolio 10, Figures 93)</p><p dir="ltr">(3) <i>A feminist mask for Joyce’s</i> … is an unfinished title for an object containing the word ‘feminist’ mentioned only once in <i>Ulysses</i> in the Circe episode.

These drawings are written about in (Vol. I, Ch. 3.3) with visuals in (Vol II, P/folio 8, Fig. 62).</p><p dir="ltr">Filmed as a live performance with an audience for the third time as part of The Drawing Lab on 26 February 2026 in The Fine Art Department at Loughborough University, it provided an audience-based framework for a one-woman monologue with improvised sections and transtext objects. A transcript of the performance is available (Vol II, Script 3, p.168).</p><p dir="ltr">With many thanks to the Fine Art Dept at Loughborough University, Rachel Gadsden and Yige Bau, for Drawing Lab initiatives and support, including recording the performance videos.

My sincere thanks to Deborah Harty and the Drawing Research Group at Loughborough University.</p><table><tr><td><p dir="ltr">© the author</p></td></tr></table><p></p>
