Joanna Walsh

Joanna Walsh is a multidisciplinary writer and artist whose work moves among essays, fiction, performance, and visual art. My Life as a Godard Movie is an essay about beauty, desire, and revolution in the films of Jean-Luc Godard. Published by Transit Books, it follows Walsh as she watches his work and considers how images of Paris and women on screen intersect with her memories and habits of looking. The book belongs to Transit's Undelivered Lectures series, a format suited to its compressed criticism. Walsh is also the author of Hotel, Vertigo, Break.up, and Girl Online. Across these projects, personal experience becomes a way to ask how cultural images shape identity.
