An erotic novel in disguise, Willy Smart’s Switch Wish dwells in the tension between pause and play. From water striders and spiders to webs, stems, and stalks—the natural world abounds and is amplified through this narrator’s attention which moves via associative flow, inquiring into the power of spells, names, and their role in transformation.

Willy Smart is an American artist and writer whose work proposes expanded modes and objects of reading and recording—stones, insects, ponds, surfaces, hormones, spores, clouds. They have shared their work in the USA, the Netherlands, Germany, and Scotland. Publications include two book length-publications with Publication Studio Portland, and essays published by Objet-a Creative Studio, MIEL press, World Forum for Acoustic Ecology, and Dilettante Journal, among others.
