Learn to make books with Yuchen! This can be done with whatever you have on hand. We want to exercise a coordination: between the structure of bindings and the structure of ideas, between the texture of paper and the texture of feelings, between the material aspects of artists’ books and the conceptual potentials — hands and hearts are each other’s teacher.

【Grain Direction: go with the flow (of paper)】

Chang Yuchen is an artist based in New York. She works in an interdisciplinary manner — writing as weaving, drawing as translation, clothing as portable theater, commerce as everyday revolution (see Use Value). By constantly entering and exiting each medium, she strolls against the category of things, the labor division among people. Yuchen was an artist in residence at MASS MoCA, MAD Museum, Offshore, Bananafish Books and Textile Arts Center. She has shown her works/performed at UCCA Dune, Taikwun, Abrons Art Center, Salt Projects, Assembly Room, among others. Yuchen's works are collected by Joan Flasch Artists' Book Collection, MoMA Library, Thomas J. Watson Library. @yuchenyuchen
