OUT NOW: From the Root of Her Tongue, So-Yeon Kim

In “From the Root of Her Tongue,” So-Yeon Kim delves into the origins of language through signs, symbols, and iconography, transforming written script into a visual narrative. The book invites you to experience a visual language, featuring curated images from second-hand books and archives, mimicking written syntax and highlighting the power of images as language.

Accompanied by Mariana Lobão’s text, “Weaving the Mesh (Spider Thoughts),” which explores weaving, memory, and cognition inspired by Kim’s work and Paolo Veronese’s painting of Arachne. Lobão beautifully connects the myth of Arachne and Athena to cultural memory and the intricate patterns of human thought.

everthing is a file is a playful/poetic exploration of the linguistic quality and restrictions of file names in our digital and analog lives.

This hybrid publishing project is based on files only. Upload a file on the project website with an interesting, weird or unusual filename to this collection to be able to order a printed publication. This will be printed on demand, and send to you.

everything is a file is part of the Publishing Dialogues series, by artists/authors who explore language as an instrument and construct. With the series we want to create a space for small scale experiments. Not to publish a definitive, immutable object, but to make a suggestion. One that is open to improvement, revision, call-and-response, iteration, or even a full negation.

*everything is a file is printed on demand with a maximum edition of 100.
