About this site
a learning utterance is a place hosting writings by Shen Xin. The publishing is timed with intentions, without a defined frequency. They write with an aspiration to reconstruct languages of inter-connectivity from states of dispossession. This practice also lends itself to a process of returning to sites of creation, from what alienates art and living.
