Reading Water Poems with Hong Hong

Hong Hong’s work 河/River is her first thematic, research-based project that considers her personal relationship with water. The paper-based installation imagines and presents water as a long-form poem. Structured like reading group, the conversation will be anchored by the text “Translation is a Mode=Translation is an Anti-neocolonial Mode” by Don Mee Choi which is integral to the artists thinking about her piece.Registered attendees will receive a copy of the 10 page text to read in advance of the program and are also invited to bring poems about water to contribute to the conversation.
