On 28 October 2023, City Gallery Wellington hosted an event to celebrate the opening of Angela Lane’s amazing exhibition Phosphene
As part of this event Joan Fleming and Aaron Lister wrote and read responses to these works.
Joan wrote a beautiful description of their work:
I read a short, strange essay about awe and the beauty experience with its inevitable fringe of disgust, and about withness and terror and the sun. Aaron Lister read something about Mary Shelley, the year without summer, and Frankenstein as the first climate change novel.
In this episode Joan and Aaron generously recorded these essays at Massey University.
I hope you enjoy these readings.
