Résumé: | The article examines the performances of the pop artist Sia as a lens to embodied resistance to stultifying social forces that create mental illness. Through a literature review of several prominent works in pastoral theology, I note the discipline's bias toward cognitive therapies when outlining mental illnesses created by such forces. Next, I examine how such forces work on the body to point out the problem with the discipline's overemphasis on cognitive therapies. Then, in conversation with philosophies and theologies of movement, creation, and transcendence, I contrast Sia's embodied performances as a way to emphasize the body itself as it strives to find space for survival and resistance. |
