Time Regime traces the lives, ecological contexts, and dreams of multiple beings- rice germ, red ticks, a grandmother's skin cells, limestone deposits, machine intelligence, shaggy language, the poet, no-self, or the mythological winged cow Surabhi-as they collide and float in parallel vectors. Displaced and seeking, these spectral and material bodies erode and recombine at the edges of domestic ruin, ecological collapse, and state-sanctioned death, delivering an image of presence that seeks communion with mess. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn their transcending debut, Jhani Randhawa posits an alternative figuration for the post-modern self-one untethered by oppressive regimes marked by systems of silence-and gives us a body that transforms itself into a site of resistance by bearing witness to our living. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gaudy Boy, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47254295248948,"sku":null,"price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/3395\/5892\/files\/23150753482543.jpg?v=1762988331","url":"https:\/\/accentsisters.myshopify.com\/products\/time-regime-poems-jhani-randhawa","provider":"AccentSisters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
