HaYoung
At Limestone Books, HaYoung will present the H. book.
They will sharing the reflections of non-translation, how to break the western margin systems and how to weave collective voices and memories together.
The event will be accompanied by screenings of four videos connected to different chapters of the book.
HaYoung is a participant @janvaneyckacademie academie this year, they would love to share more with you.
This book is not exactly a notebook, nor is it a portfolio, an archive, or a memoir. H. is the first volume of HaYoung. This monograph takes the form of a narrative puzzle, a journey through translations: from one language to another, from one medium to another and from one space to another. H. is the beginning of a pattern, a silence, non-binary code, an ego trip, a reflection on identity, a punchline, a love story or even a hot potato.
On these 152 pages, arranged by designer Chloé Delchini, HaYoung's drawings are superposed and become rhizomatic narrators evolving over the course of the nine chapters. In their work, in life as in this book, HaYoung's voice persists in the margins, around Western structures. The artist's writing proliferates within this rigid system of grids, adapting to it, attempting to communicate, creating misunderstandings and deconstructing it.
With contributions from Aude Christel Mgba, Nelle Gevers, Sarah Netter, Anne Vimeux and Théo Casciani. H. is a book of a voice that constantly updates itself.
