Communication Through Asemic Writing | Olga Kulish | ATypI 2023 Paris

We all have stories, and often want to share them with others, but at the same time do not want to tell too much. We want to be sure that the person to whom we tell the story will understand us and our feelings, and will be empathic. The installation Empathy, written in illegible asemic script and augmented with concrete sounds is a work which lets us think about emotions, other people’s stories, and our own experiences. I would like to share my working process on my MA diploma, which is represented by six book-scrolls. Each book is supposed to be viewed, touched, and heard. The visual and sound part is a metaphor of a conversation, while the touch is a gesture of touching one's friend's shoulder, expressing empathy. By this gesture we are trying to say “I hear you, I understand your feelings.” Each book is an emotional representation of an artist, a story that was told but remains unreadable, because of the illegible scripts which were used. Nevertheless, viewers are invited to make their own meaning out of it.
