No Knowledge Is Complete Until It Passes Through My Body by Asiya Wadud, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A revelatory collection of poems by Asiya Wadud that document the forces that shape the human body in movement and explore the continuum and conditions of how knowledge is enacted. Equal parts score and transmission, the poems in No Knowledge Is Complete Until It Passes Through My Body explores the intelligence of the body, especially bodies under duress, through a series of poems and dance scores. Wadud evokes the experience of transmission - the hum and chorus that fills us when we write - to explore methods and modes of continuum, endurance, and claustrophobia. Drawing inspiration from the multi-disciplinary performances of Okwui Okpokwasili, Wadud asks, how does a thread of logic form? How do we extend it on either ends so that it's in conversation with another work and also furthering the conversation? | No Knowledge Is Complete Until It Passes Through My Body by Asiya Wadud, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
