Professor Laura González
Athenaeum Research Fellow
Professor Laura González’s work inhabits the space between medical humanities, psychoanalysis, performance and Eastern thought. She has written on the seductive qualities of a lemon squeezer (2010), and has co-edited collections of essays on art and madness (2013) and on care (2018). She is the author of ‘Make Me Yours: How Art Seduces’ (2016) and ‘The Hysteric: Outline of a Figure’ (with Dr Eleanor Bowen, 2023). She has published book chapters on transposition (2018) inter-semiotic translation (2019), her maternal line (2019), breath (2020) and ghosts (2021). She has translated Freud’s case histories into performance and is currently exploring the dramaturgical potential of a breath practice.
