2ly: An Exchange of Letters of Two Pairs between London and Leipzig
Participants: Hanako Emden (Florian∞Emden), Sophie Florian (Florian∞Emden), Safiye Gray (SM Studio), Molly Cranston (SM Studio)
Moderator: Johanna Maierski (Colorama)
Reading at SAFI FAYE STAGE (HKW)
Join us for a reading by the artist duos SM Studio (London) and Florian∞Emden (Leipzig) from their correspondence project 2ly.
“Familiarity creates a new language, an in-house language of intimacy.” But what happens to familiarity when it is publicized, widely? How do intimate thoughts, a formerly private conversation, react to being printed and (mis)read?
A transeuropean exchange of thoughts and feelings, the letters explore these questions and plenty more, some more mundane than others, through a shared love for characters, words, and texts. Publishing, here, is understood as speculation, and a shared authorship as given.
