Philosophy of the Home proposes the domestic sphere as a living site of knowledge, memory, care, and female authority. Drawing on feminist theory, Emanuele Coccia’s philosophy of dwelling, and the matrilineal traditions of Bhutan, Laura Dzelzytė repositions the home as an epistemic structure shaped through intimacy, ritual, inheritance, and repeated gestures of care. Moving between personal history, post-Communist memory, Catholic upbringing, migration, and the traditional houses of Nobgang in Punakha, the text explores how domestic space carries identity across generations. The Bhutanese home emerges as a living archive: a place where women sustain material continuity, emotional formation, and cultural knowledge through the quiet power of dwelling.

Emergent-cy, A Queered Epistemology develops Emergent-cy as a neologism for unresolved, durational crisis. Moving through Stuart Lee’s The Felled Tree Performance (2025), their writing links queer epistemology, scientific knowledge systems, jelly/projection-based performance, and ecological gesture, reading Jannis Neumann’s Grasping the Liquid alongside their own The Felled Tree Performance (2025). This discourses the movement between queer theory, scientific reductionism, Jannis Neumann’s performance Grasping the Liquid, and Gilbert Simondon’s concept of ontogenesis to consider how bodies, objects, gestures, and materials remain in flux.
