2) excerpt: “I bring doom into the conversation to show that it is a place to begin, not to end. Once I started thinking of doom as liberatory, I felt free from the dread it constitutes when it looms in the future. How many of us have already met our doom and then had to get out of bed and go on? How many groups of people have had their worlds end, keep ending, and still they found ways to cook for each other? How privileged are you if you first require hope in order to act? What about those where hope was a luxury they couldn’t afford, and still they wrote books, they made music, they sang? They keep singing.”

it’s been a week since my 4th book, How to Tell When We Will Die: On Pain, Disability, and Doom, has been in the world. thank you everyone who’s joining the crip party. thank you to the exquisite @clare.mao and @caolinn & to my superb publishers @hillmangrad and @zandoprojects
come celebrate with me next week on October 9 in LA for the official launch with @lenawaithe and @thestackspod 🔥 tickets at link in bio.
this new big pink one joins my three others: On Hell (2018), Minerva the Miscarriage of the Brain (2020), Your Love Is Not Good (2023). what a cuteness of cunts, a murder of crows, an intrusion of cockroaches, a piteousness of doves.
this book took ten years to write, and the fact that it’s coming into the world when the genocidal engine of imperial power is churning at an even more brutalizing pace is, although it can feel like it, not a fluke, not a cognitive dissonance. this conundrum is exactly what the book is about: paradoxical moments of community, joy, and survival happen alongside genocide, bombing, and the unmeasurable daily grief and pain committed by state power. america and israel and its allies are simply continuing what they have always done. so—we will too. we will keep resisting, keep caring for each other, keep fighting. i’ve added new links and fundraisers to my linktree, and will continue to do so in stories. please donate, share, support how and when you can.

[video description: Hedva’s hands in black leather gloves rub the hardcover copy of their novel, Your Love Is Not Good, which has a snot-yellow cover with a black and white photo of a dog and an author photo of Hedva looking hilariously monarchical on the back.]
wave of life: it’s my birthday in a few days, and also my mother’s death anniversary in the same week, so these days are always heavingly pelagic and weird, but yesterday i learned that my book, How to Tell When We Will Die: On Pain, Disability, and Doom, has earned out, which means i will now receive royalties. i learned that the amount of copies sold is in the five figures.
holy fuck.
i need to just take a minute. like, this is a 400-page unruly essay collection on disability—that reveled in complexity, messiness, abundance, nuance, sexiness, strangeness, pain, and fun—that refused to reduce disability down to a single story, but insisted that it could be a vast and rich literary subject that could manifest and manifold into limitless meanings—and it took me more than a decade to get into the world.
also: it did not get ONE review. not one. which means that it’s found its way through the world solely in the hands of readers, by crip sick queer freaky geniuses passing it to their friends.
yall are so cute; you know how to make an ancient limping hag feel cunt on their birthday. i feel lucky to be writing with, alongside, for, and because of you. i could not have done this without each of you and forgive my sentimentality but i can feel in my whole being the time and attention you’ve given this book, and it feels amazing. endless love to my agent @clare.mao and my editor @caolinn for being part of the coven. we did it.

Johanna Hedva's 'Failed Poet: New and Early Video Works' continues this week at TINA!
Johanna Hedva
the vanity of amnesia keeps me young, 2026
Single channel video, an excerpt from The Odyssey, translated by Emily Wilson
5 minutes 4 seconds
Edition of 3 + 2APs
Made in 2026, by candlelight. The text is from the 'lotus-eaters' excerpt from The Odyssey, translated by Emily Wilson, in the first translation by a woman which was published only in 2017. The sound is Hedva’s 2022 'Scream Demo,' a vocal piece recorded in Hedva’s apartment during lockdown. ‘Scream Demo’ demonstrates Hedva’s methodology of swinging between the antipodal styles of opera and P’ansori, pushing into the possibility of vocal cord damage. In making this edge legible, and sometimes taking the body beyond it with all the attendant possibility of failure, Hedva invokes an inversion of normative Western values around what a voice should, and should not, sound like.

Next up at TINA!
Johanna Hedva ‘Failed Poet: New and Early Video Works’
PV Thursday 2 April 6 - 8pm
‘Failed Poet: New and Early Video Works’ marks Johanna Hedva’s return to TINA, bringing together eight early videos (2013–2020) with a new work, ‘The Vanity of Amnesia Keeps Me Young’ (2026). At its centre is ‘Failed Poet’ (2015), a trilogy that Hedva describes as 'the hinge door' that flew open their engagement with video at all. Conceived as a loose, non-hierarchical survey, the exhibition revisits the formative works that established Hedva’s moving-image language, at once intimate, mercurial, and possessed by voice, body and text. Not so much a retrospective, ‘Failed Poet...’ is a spatialised archive where works are encountered across screens, projections and sound, at varying scales and proximities.
‘Failed Poet...’ offers both a return and a reintroduction. Early works, often less widely seen, are brought into the present as a collective gesture, letting the work build, layer, and spill beyond itself. The result is a cacophony of images, voices and rhythms that resists singular readings in favour of accumulation and encounter.
Johanna Hedva (b. 1984, Los Angeles, CA, USA; lives and works in LA, USA and Berlin, Germany) is a contemporary artist, writer, and musician. Across visual art, performance, critical writing, fiction and music, their work deals with ecstasy as much as abjection; erotics as much as disintegration; death, illness, and disability, as much as mysticism, ritual, and political activism.
They were included in Art Review’s 2025 power 100 list and their 2024 exhibition at TINA, London was selected as one of Art Forum's best shows of 2025. They are also a recipient of the 2026 United States Artist Fellowship awards.
TINA is located on the first floor of 191 Wardour Street, London, W1F 8ZE. Unfortunately, there is no lift. The exhibition contains flashing images. Parking is a little tricky around Wardour Street so if you require parking assistance or if you have any other access requirements not listed here please be in touch Hana Noorali at the gallery. hana@tinaofficial.co.uk

We are pleased to announced that artist Johanna Hedva and director George R. Miller have been awarded the Andrew Mangold music residency at Casa Mahler to develop a new work which will be premiered in fall 2026, and toured in 2027. They will join our Spring Session.
The residency is organised in memory of composer and musician Andrew Mangold (1971-2021). The selection committee was led by Duval Timothy and Mathias Kawinek.
Hedva is a Korean-American writer, artist and musician whose influential work questions how we encounter illness, disability, doom, and death. Hedva writes of the new work:
“The songs use melody, style, content, and structures I’ve never used before. They tell a story, beginning to end, that excavates themes of desire, power, pain, and fragility. It’s midnight. It sounds like a succubus singing folk songs. These are dominatrix blues. There are demons to be exorcised. Maybe I am the demon. The songs are blunt, wild, big—but they were written on a haunted acoustic parlor guitar, which is small, and can sound thin. The guitar is haunted. It disappeared for ten years and then returned. What this requires of me to play is new: I’ve never sung this way before, never played this way before, and never been directed by a collaborator before. As new as all of this is, it is a natural development in my work as a musician, songwriter, performer. I am trying to devote myself to bringing this into the world the way it deserves, and this residency would allow me to do that in a total way.”
The performance will be Hedva’s most ambitious to date and is developed in collaboration with the opera director George R. Miller. Miller has presented work at Carnegie Hall, Opera Philadelphia, The Juilliard School, REDCAT, Long Beach Opera, Opera Saratoga, Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, Pioneer Works, Pageant, and Wild Up among others.
Open Studio: Friday 17 April, 18.00, Spoleto
Details tba, please email info@mahler-lewitt.org to discuss access requirements.

ten years ago today, january 19, 2016, “sick woman theory” was published in mask magazine. the day after, my essay “euripides is not a genius. i am.” was published in eleven eleven magazine. both magazines are now defunct 💔 forgive my sincerity in this post, but i can’t be chill about chronological time.
“sick woman theory” is now collected in my 4th book, how to tell when we will die (and a 2022 version of swt is online at @topicalcream). “euripides is not a genius. i am.” is collected in my 2nd book, minerva the miscarriage of the brain. in 2016 i had published no books, but it’s all i wanted to do.
ten years ago today, jupiter was conjuncting the north node exactly ON my midheaven. that moment, those two pieces published back to back, changed everything. i felt catapulted into a new stratosphere of visibility, and i mostly did not know how to feel anything other than overwhelmed. the coolest part was the community i found: the freaks, heretics, queers, and crips who are pushing their bones and souls and hearts forward in the name of disability justice, abolitional practice, and their own sheer incendiary fabulousness. i’ve tried to be useful and committed to them. i’ve tried to be brave like them.
i am often furious about chronological time. i often cannot bear it. 2025 was exceptionally hard. my health has declined as my star rises. i had weeks and weeks in bed. i think i’m slouching toward becoming an anchoress, a wraith.
the few things i like about chronological time are getting older with friends, getting better at writing, and getting to see one’s small activisms go out into the world and make ripples. let’s keep fighting for and donating to a free palestine (link in bio), resisting ICE, showing up for each other, cooking together, not giving up. let’s give those motherfuckers hell.
the weight of time has made me more furious, and more disabled. but maybe it’s honing me? i feel sharp.

Instagram Stories geheim ansehen
Der Instagram Story Viewer ist ein einfaches Tool, mit dem Sie Instagram Stories, Videos, Fotos oder IGTV heimlich ansehen und speichern können. Mit diesem Service können Sie Inhalte herunterladen und offline genießen, wann immer Sie möchten. Wenn Sie etwas Interessantes auf Instagram finden, das Sie später überprüfen möchten, oder Stories anonym ansehen möchten, ist unser Viewer ideal für Sie. Anonstories bietet eine ausgezeichnete Lösung, um Ihre Identität zu schützen. Instagram hat die Stories-Funktion erstmals im August 2023 eingeführt, die schnell auch von anderen Plattformen übernommen wurde, dank ihres fesselnden, zeitlich begrenzten Formats. Stories ermöglichen es Nutzern, schnelle Updates zu teilen, sei es Fotos, Videos oder Selfies, ergänzt durch Text, Emojis oder Filter, und sind nur 24 Stunden lang sichtbar. Dieser begrenzte Zeitrahmen sorgt für eine hohe Interaktion im Vergleich zu regulären Posts. Heutzutage sind Stories eine der beliebtesten Methoden, um sich in sozialen Medien zu verbinden und zu kommunizieren. Wenn Sie jedoch eine Story ansehen, kann der Ersteller Ihren Namen in seiner Viewer-Liste sehen, was ein Problem für die Privatsphäre sein kann. Was ist, wenn Sie Stories durchsuchen möchten, ohne bemerkt zu werden? Hier wird Anonstories nützlich. Es ermöglicht Ihnen, öffentliche Instagram-Inhalte anzusehen, ohne Ihre Identität preiszugeben. Geben Sie einfach den Benutzernamen des Profils ein, das Sie interessiert, und das Tool zeigt dessen neueste Stories an. Funktionen des Anonstories Viewers: - Anonymes Browsen: Sehen Sie Stories, ohne in der Viewer-Liste zu erscheinen. - Kein Konto erforderlich: Sehen Sie öffentliche Inhalte, ohne ein Instagram-Konto zu erstellen. - Inhalte herunterladen: Speichern Sie beliebige Story-Inhalte direkt auf Ihrem Gerät für die Offline-Nutzung. - Highlights anzeigen: Greifen Sie auf Instagram-Highlights zu, auch über das 24-Stunden-Fenster hinaus. - Repost-Überwachung: Verfolgen Sie Reposts oder Interaktionen bei Stories für persönliche Profile. Einschränkungen: - Dieses Tool funktioniert nur mit öffentlichen Accounts; private Accounts bleiben unzugänglich. Vorteile: - Datenschutzfreundlich: Sehen Sie sich beliebige Instagram-Inhalte an, ohne bemerkt zu werden. - Einfach und unkompliziert: Keine App-Installation oder Registrierung erforderlich. - Exklusive Tools: Laden Sie Inhalte herunter und verwalten Sie sie auf eine Weise, die Instagram nicht bietet.
