While I Watched the Airplanes is Dorothy Yuan's first collection of poetry, primarily inspired by a fateful Sunday spent - needless to say - at the airport viewing gallery. Like airplane spotting, the collection takes a retrospective and observational approach to an array of relationships one could have: familial, platonic, romantic, with art, society, and one's self. She writes in a wistful tone, presenting the occurrence and breakdown of these relationships, and the emotions that remain after parties depart.

Autorenporträt
Dorothy Yuan is a visual artist and writer from Singapore who spends her train rides writing. In her art, she navigates the liminal space between modern culture and the past, using her work as a platform for sociopolitical commentary. However, while some of these themes do translate into her writing, her poetry tends to observe the more intricate relationships between and within people. At the end of a long week, you'll find her lost in thought at the airport viewing gallery watching airplanes.
