______ Mt. [blank mount]

With ______ Mt. [blank mount], which inhabits Percy Shelley’s iconic poem of British Romanticism, “Mont Blanc” (1816), Goldman explores the ecological, aesthetic, philosophical, and technological crossroads of the 21st century. Shelley’s ode expresses anxiety about glaciers, environmental extremity, and nature’s unmasterability. Making the poem a springboard for speculative poetic-critical practice, Goldman will perform work that addresses past futures and future histories of ecological crisis converging at the Anthropocene “now.”
