What is rendered down. What is scraped. What remains of my specic esh. writes Petra Kuppers, deep in the writing of the body-life, its translation transhistorical transcultural transfantasy transitory trance. Reading, tracking really, from desert to plasma, through the many fields of this beautiful book, I was moved by Kuppers capacity to keep a space open between the unassimilable parts of embodied practice and the moment when what the subject is, the body itself, begins to stream. Here we find the goddess, or the nervous system, but also an inflammatory process, the asymmetrical lean. The delicacy and courage to do that, to shift the time of the body, or its spacespacesis what I learned from at every stage of PearlStitch, which I want to recommend to any reader interested in hybridity, or poetry, or performance, as something that begins as a seam, not composed, but unraveling, undoing itself at every turn. This surrender or loosening is the work, too, of the beloved and of breath. In this way, Petra Kuppers book turns to love. And its love, at last, that illuminates everything that she writes and that eventually, transmitted, felt, we read. Bhanu Kapil In PearlStitch, Petra Kuppers initiates us in ritual conversation, collective and intimate. Her embodied engagement with the political, mythical, pop cultural, feminist, historical and scientific brings poetics into the commons all the way through to the tender touch of loversknitting labor with Eros, beneath your fingers, worker, is your fantasy and your redemption, meet my eyes, beloved,/turn around. These are incantatory poems, stitching together (the purl of) factory floors, canopies, rivers, borders, sidewalks and streets. Invocations of singer Madonna, Beatrice and Sophia converge with Jung, Wittig and Audre Lorde. Kuppers contends with systemic violence as in the murder of women in Jarez, Mexico and the ravages of neoliberal capitalisms, while also bringing the sensate, individual body into presence on the page, in alchemical discovery and in pain. She traces our own proprioceptive map of chronicity, a million tiny stabbing decrepitudes, spines protruding into the melodys gap./Glottal rhythm hiccup and veering off downward and out. At the same time, and throughout, she dances in solidarity with queer and disability activists toward the possibilities of relational healing. Denise Leto and Amber DiPietra A pearl stitch is a chain stitch, also known as the basque knot. In this garlandy chain of poems, Petra Kuppers interknits a mythology of heroines, natural wonders, marvelously slippery identities, personal struggles and exultations, but also acknowledges the violence by which text-making and life-making takes place in our world, whereby the endless piston that drives the needle into the skin, looping and connecting, is also the mechanism of our most elaborate cultural efflorescence. A beautiful meditation on the labor of making at all levels, PearlStitch stabs out a love letter to the love that fuels our creative surges in spite of all urges toward its perversion by capital.
