Mackenzie’s current artistic project is a theoretical investigation into the deconstruction of Phallogocentrism; in which she proposes to link Irigaray’s ‘labial’ language of difference to Deleuze’s rhizome-thought to form a potential ‘labial/rhizomatic’ way of thinking in critique of the Phallogocentric traditional image of thought. In conveying this Utopian proposal through a theory of aesthetics, Mackenzie suggests could be the starting point for the emancipation of feminine ways and means of expression. By merging together an artistic practice and a philosophy of art and aesthetics, she aims to create both scholarly work and artistic encounters that convey this feminist philosophy of ‘labial’ art-politics in order to explore Utopian ideals and change through artistic expression.
