About this site

a learning utterance is a place hosting writings and newsletters 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. 

Subscription

When you subscribe to become a member, you'll be able to engage with the website as well as to receive emails. The newsletters are sent a few times a year, where recent projects, exhibitions, screenings, etc., are introduced at a low frequency. Newly published writings will not be sent to your mailbox, though you can access this site to read them anytime, and they will be mentioned as part of the newsletters. With a paid-membership, your support to Xin's creative practices is greatly appreciated, thank you. When it doesn’t resonate with you to receive from this site at any point, feel free to unsubscribe with no questions asked. 

About Shen Xin

Working with moving image, installation, sound, text, painting, and performance, Shen Xin is an artist and filmmaker who practices co-creating languages that speak the grammar of sense, volition, technique, and spaciousness, while abiding knowing in relation. Through epistemic relationships manifested from the land, they tell stories that reconstruct terms of innate belonging against territories of nation states. Nurturing the renunciation of boundaries drawn with reified absence, their practice is of habituation towards truth as kindred capacities. They were born in Chengdu, Sichuan, and finds home in Northern An t-eilean Sgitheanach (Isle of Skye) and Mni Sota Makoce.

You can visit this website for more information on Shen Xin's work, watch excerpts and trailers on vimeo, and listen to a playlist here.
