“In the background: an endless flow of words.
Sounds without beginning nor end. Inarticulate and smooth, always.
Figures; the voice, its colours, its emotions.
Words as meaning carriers.
Presence.
Figures over a background, connected by symbols and images.” — Ingrid Drese

“The structure of this text is in two levels. The project consists in making them live together, knowing that they have nothing in common.” — Étienne Leclercq

— Ingrid Drese [English translation: François Couture, vi-09]
