Zoegraphy: Per/forming Posthuman Lives

Drawing on various theories of life from the perspective of philosophical posthumanism, feminist new materialism, and the work of Gilles Deleuze, this article examines the capacity of contemporary art to extend life writing beyond the figure of the human. Through a theoretical and autobiographical engagement with aesthetic practices that turn "life itself" into a work of art, the essay develops zoegraphy as a radically post-anthropocentric approach to life narrative.
