WB401
Scar Code
Maria Sledmere
In the ward, three patients lie asleep.
The spiders entered them long ago, not
by the usual oral route, but via the silk of sleep itself.
A prosimetric text that moves between poetry and essay to explore anticipatory grief, end of life care, entanglement and spiders via an ekphrastic engagement with Chiharu Shiota’s installation Sleeping is like death.
