[2025 SIWF] One on One | (More Vibe Than) Meets the Eye

In communicating, ‘you’ and ‘I’ form a ‘we.’ This ‘we’ is shaped by words and sounds other than words, by expressions and gestures, and sometimes by silence and avoidance. Literature is an art shaped through language, but the language of the time is something that continues to shapeshift from words into not-words, from sound into silence, into something that suddenly disappears and then into something that reappears just as suddenly. Language is what creates human sensations, reasons, memory, culture, and history, and at the same time it is what constitutes the bodies of these things. In the process of humans eating and bearing and seeing and writing, language repeatedly transforms. Because of this, the language given to ‘you’ and ‘me’ is the link that is always creating a new ‘us.’ In these ever-changing landscapes of our lives, within the conditions of language, how are ‘your’ and ‘my’ memories conveyed to each other, and how do they come to face this unfamiliar ‘us’ each day? In this text-hip era where we experience the avant-garde of our time as we share in the activity of reading through images or video, these two poets are always seeking new ways to meet their readers rather than adhering to tradition. You are hereby invited into this conversation between Yumi Fuzuki and Jang I-ji. Their discussion, about the generational shifts that have made not the writers’ message as communicated via writing but the response from readers more possible, is one to look forward to.
