Angharad Williams - Eraser
Welcome to the world, Eraser! Angharad Williams' book concludes a two-year process of writing
and has existed in the form of an exhibition, a performance, and a book. Eraser is as much about
the categorical boundaries of our consensual reality-between self and other, human and non-
human, waking and dreaming consciousness-as it is about an urge to overcome them. The
book's main protagonist undergoes multiple transformations via psychic and physical
transferences with elementary forces-involving a trout and a magpie, among other things-that
unsettle the idea of the "stable" self. Eraser proposes a perspective in which the categorical
distinctions between individual self, others, and non-human life slowly begin to dissolve. Other
worlds of consciousness-of animals, plants, and organic matter-here embody a form of social
organization free from the hierarchies of tradition and liberal progress.
