Centered on three guiding themes — matrices, belief, and mourning — this collective reading by artists Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi and Fabian Saul, together with a curator, builds on a poetic inquiry system the trio developed in 2022. They create a landscape of texts, sounds, and moving images that both explore and unsettle these questions. The project culminates in a new film composed of archival footage and original sequences edited by Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi, with sound by Andrew Yong Hoon Lee; a live sound composition by Fabian Saul; and original texts written and performed by Thuy-Han Nguyen-Chi, Jade Meili Barget, and Fabian Saul. This event is part of a three-chapter cycle, also presented at the Harvard Film Archive and the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst, in partnership with Zürich liest 2025.
