Revisualising Intersectionality is a groundbreaking exploration that delves into the complex and multifaceted concept of intersectionality, challenging the perceived visual evidentiality of categories of human similarity and difference. This open-access book, enriched with insights from social and cognitive science, psychology, and philosophy, offers a comprehensive understanding of how we perceive physical differences and the inherent fallibility of cognition. It sheds light on the contextual factors that influence our visual perception and the role of the observer in shaping our cognitive processes.
Furthermore, Revisualising Intersectionality engages in a rich dialogue with visual culture studies and artistic research, intersecting with disciplines such as gender, queer, trans, postcolonial, and decolonial theory. This interdisciplinary approach complicates simplistic notions of identity politics and cultural representation, offering a more nuanced and comprehensive understanding of the complexities of human experiences.
At its core, the book proposes a revision of intersectionality research, aiming to shift the focus away from the predominant categories of visible difference, such as race and gender, as analytical lenses. Instead, it encourages a broader and more inclusive approach that recognizes the interconnections and overlaps between various forms of identity and oppression. By exploring the visual dimensions of intersectionality, Revisualising Intersectionality offers a fresh perspective on understanding the complexities of our social world and fosters a deeper appreciation for the diversity and richness of human experiences.
