Tiffany Article Published in Sixteenth Century Journal
This essay examines the religious practice of Sor Margarita de la Cruz (1567–1633), a niece of Philip II who spent her adult life as a nun at the Descalzas Reales in Madrid. At the center of Margarita’s devotional practice were highly lifelike polychrome sculptures of the Christ child, which she cradled and clothed, imitating and reinforcing the dynastic rituals of motherhood performed by court women. I argue that Margarita’s engagement with the infant Christ helped her negotiate the boundaries between her religious vocation and her purported duty to bear children and extend the Habsburg line. Especially important to my analysis of the sacred and worldly frameworks of Margarita’s piety is the hagiographical Vida written by her confessor. Published in an exquisitely illustrated tome, Margarita’s Vida codified, in both content and material production, her status as an exemplar of the Pietas Austriaca , the fervent Catholicism central to the Habsburg’s self-definition.
Johung published in PUBLIC Journal
Johung’s article, “Pluripotent Selves and the Performance of Stem Cells” was published in a special volume on Interspecies Communication (PUBLIC Journal #59, eds. Meredith Tromble and Patricia Olynyk) in July 2019.
The article explores Guy Ben-Ary’s performance installation, cellF, which utilizes induced pluripotent stem cell technologies in order to regenerate his skin cells into a neural network capable of interacting with musicians in real time and space. The article considers the entanglement of pluripotent stem cell and non-living catalyst as necessary for both the endless renewal and redistribution of life beyond itself.
