Presentations
Workshop free and open to all. Have any texts touched you this year? This workshop is an invitation to mix your words with other words.
How do you say what you want to say to "Mum" with the knot in your throat, how do you slip your poetic fingers into that knot to relieve the tension, loosen it and perhaps undo it? Drawing on a selection of texts (notably from L'eau du bain and x et excès, ed. Le Castor astral, 2024), Rim Battal invites us to write poems addressed to the mother in the same way we would drain the bathwater to keep a baby clean and safe.
In partnership with Passaporta
