LA PROPHÉTESSE / THE PROPHETESS (2019-2020)
Drawing from the observations, experiences and thoughts gathered throughout her life, the prophetess, in a surge of hope and altruism, shares her conception of a world which should have been, could or will be: a manifesto, for a fictitious or latent generation. The text is freely inspired by a Francis Ponge poem, The Law and the Prophets (1930), reinterpreted and rewritten to better anchor it to the contemporary context as well as to my own ideals.
S’appuyant sur les observations, les expériences et les réflexions accumulées tout au long de sa vie, la prophétesse, dans un élan d’espoir et d’altruisme, nous livre sa conception d’un monde qui aurait dû être, pourrait être, ou sera : un manifeste, pour une génération fictive, ou latente. Le texte est librement inspiré d’un poème de Francis Ponge, La loi et les prophètes (1930), réinterprété et réécrit, pour mieux l’ancrer au contexte contemporain et à mes propres idéaux.
