‘Radical Ecosexual Art for A Flourishing Climate Future:

In conversation with Penny Slinger, Annie Sprinkle & Beth Stephens’



Monday 30th November 2020, 1-2.15pm EST



Chaired by Sophie Swoffer and Alissa Clarke




Penny Slinger (b. 1947, London, UK) is a Los Angeles-based artist who has been exploring feminism, eroticism and mysticism in her art for over fifty years. Slinger found surrealism in the 1960s and 1970s and used it to plumb the depths of the feminine psyche. She worked, and continues to work, in many mediums including collage, photography, drawing, sculpture/assemblage, performance arts and video.


Beth Stephens, Ph.D. is an ecosexual performance artist, filmmaker, activist and educator. Stephens has made artwork, performance and writing about queerness, feminism and environmentalism for over 25 years. Beth’s current focus is SexEcology, a new field of research. Dr. Stephens is the Founding Director of the E.A.R.T.H. Lab at University of California Santa Cruz where she has been a Professor of Art for 25+ years.


Annie Sprinkle, Ph.D. has been creating multi-media about sexuality for over four decades. She was the first US porn star to earn a Ph.D. Coming out as an ecosexual in 2008 changed her life forever. Sprinkle was proud to be awarded the Artist/Activist/Scholar Award from Performance Studies International. Her last book (with Beth) was Explorer’s Guide to Planet Orgasm.
