Graduate Student, Anthropology
About
Shalanda Phillips is a graduate student of social anthropology at York University. She is fixated on modes of moving and the multifaceted theoretical terrain texturing the bodies therein. Her current research is principally concerned with embodied, sensuous, and affective practices approached through an ethnographic engagement with spun fire in the Greater Toronto Area. Alongside her scholarly interests, she also plays with and without fire through various mediums: hoop, staff, rope dart, and poi. Her interests more broadly deal with various dimensions of play, including published work on multi-partner sexual play and, more recently, a phenomenological inquiry into the sensory dimension of spinning fire.
