"Language switch is an artist book created to explore how I experience Korean and English in my daily life. I've always been fascinated by how differently Korean and English sound to me, and I wanted to capture that experience in this book. When I am focused, English is perceived as a language, but without concentration, it fades into a rhythm, like music. Korean, on the other hand, is a language that I can never switch off - It's always present and always there. The book is designed in a Dos-à-Dos structure, with one side opening to the ‘Korean Switch’ and the other to the ‘English Switch.’ This style reflects how the two languages exist separately yet coexist in the same book. This design choice represents the way I switch between languages, with each affecting my auditory perception in its own unique way. Inside the book, there's a wooden sculpture of my ear, hand-carved by my father. This book is made using Tyvek and traditional Korean Hanji paper."--Colophon
