(Dis)connection: The fragment as resistance

This article positions the fragment as a site of feminist resistance. Structured in the form of a fragmented creative-critical essay, the research explores the generative potential of the concept of ‘(dis)connection’ within contemporary feminist creative writing practice by adopting fragmentation as the key method of inquiry. This allows for the entanglement of ideas across feminist theory, philosophy and creative practice methodology, foregrounding unanticipated connections and (dis)connections which emerge during the writing process. It examines the critical role making plays within knowledge production, advocating for forms of creative-critical writing which are situated, embodied, fluid, fragile and open-ended.
