About the Workshop:
In this virtual workshop for all experience levels, Instructor Shirin Salehi will introduce the participants to non-legible books through an extensive one-month discussion on legibility and hiddenness in artwork in book form. Starting with an introduction on illegibility through examples of Asemic Writing, the instructor will propose works intentionally deciphered, unreadable, and inaccessible, through a selection of case studies of Artist’s books and artworks in order to raise questions on what lies beneath the hidden language.
The course is designed to deepen reflection and poetical reasoning. All students are encouraged to actively participate in discussions throughout the workshop. The class will be divided by discussion of case studies and critiques. Though the theory discussion is the basis of the class’s structure, the instructor will work with each participant on their ideas and intuitions in order to create the initial structure of personal Artist’s book project.
The course is open to artists, poets, thinkers, and all creative individuals interested in participating in critique and theoretical discussions related to book arts and to artworks with a specific emphasis on bookness.
