I’m Kia Yee or kyatos, a Singaporean writer and artist invested in our capacity for rupture and repair.
slow species is a diaristic space of essays and loose notes where try my best to hold what is tender and true alongside what is sharp and truthful. I want to learn how to live.
Most pieces fall into one of three categories:
Letters from life — where I make sense of personal revelations and realizations I’m having about how to live, such as The third hand in the dark
Philosophical & literary meditations on art — where I use a song, a film, a poem, a novel, etc. to leap somewhere into life, such as Like real people do
Lunar notes — where I share whatever arises close to a full moon or new moon, such as More and less than what your lover desires
