Press Release
Reading Characters is a project —consisting of both a publication and an exhibition— that examines language and reading, specifically focusing on typography. The project is co-organized by Eva van Bemmelen and Annabelle Binnerts and will take place at Billytown, The Hague.
For Reading Characters, each participating artist has developed a new work for both the publication and the exhibition. They all departed from the central theme of typography: the form or the origin of language and letters and how people communicate with each other. From there, they all moved in different directions: from dancing interpunction to a magician’s hand, a mother tongue, a heart-shaped guardrail, and a book that has never been read.
Collectively, this exhibition aims to achieve a playful interplay between word, context, and material, an examination of what a word or character can be, and by doing so, widening our understanding of narration and communication.
