"Unlike Quantange, Sintétik mercilessly compresses the alphabet. All unnecessary letters have disappeared. Homophone syllables are written in only one way. The reader must use the sound of their voice and their memory to find the meaning of words, based on melody and context."

L'Hostellerie du Mont Noir nous ramène à l’époque où la pub se peignait à la main. Ici, pas de papier qui se décolle au premier coup de vent. Avec ses lettres gothiques, cette typo inspirée des manuscrits médiévaux promet une touche de tradition et d'authenticité à ce commerce local. Un mur qui ne te racontait pas de salades. Il voulait juste t’envoyer dans un lieu où les histoires se dégustaient autour d’un bon repas, avec un petit verre pour accompagner. Aujourd'hui c'est silence radio. Il reste cette peinture pour nous dire que les bonnes choses ont une fin mais que les souvenirs tiennent bon.

We, Yay Ta Shauk and Takahiro Sawamura, collaborated to create the pieces of visual poetry. Using Burmese and Japanese characters related to water, we aimed to connect each language and realize a new landscape. Burmese characters have round shapes like glass balls or water drops. Japanese characters often preserve the forms of things within them. By integrating these features, these works were created. We hope you enjoy them. ©️Yay Ta Shauk & Takahiro Sawamura 2024
