GONFLE

(2015)

For Gonfle, Jessica Batut opens a new horizon through an experiment with language, based on a text by Christophe Tarkos Je gonfle, a trance, a prophecy in which the body, animated by contradictory forces, halfway between goddess and malevolent spirit, balks at no transgression. She challenges evil spirits and cannibalises meaning by playing with metamorphic bodies. Broyage is an exploration of language, of the words, where Jessica Batut tries to appropriate sometimes by inhabiting them, sometimes by letting them inhabit her, leading to a rhythmic explosion.
