A note about the work “Archival” from Patrycja Humienik for the Michigan Quarterly Review's Summer 2024 issue: I wrote this poem (part of my forthcoming book, We Contain Landscapes), in response to Diana Al-Hadid's exhibit “Archive of Longings” at the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle, WA in 2021. I was invited to create a workshop in conversation with the work, for which I led participants in movement and writing experiments engaging page and body as archive. Al-Hadid wrote, in the label for one of her sculptures, “I wondered how much of myself I could lose and still be there.” I remain riveted by the question.
