Nüshu – literally meaning “female script”, is the only writing system in the world created and used by women in Jiangyong county, Hunan province,which is still surviving characters exclusively for women. Nüshu, female script, is also called as calligraphy of tears.
I wrote a single pattern of word which means ’women‘ on my girlfriend’s body and invited her to write on mine.
The words pass from her palms to mine, from her body passing to mine, every woman ‘s destiny is closely connected.
‘Written for her. by her. on her.’
When talking about women around me,there are tears and unspoken things about themselves.
My mother and me,we both are daughter from mothers who suffered from love and marriage and cannot express love properly. I wrote an unsent letter for my mother about her but I would not share with her.
