Publisher's Synopsis
Mots Fleuves highlights the work of Josèfa Ntjam, an artist, performer, and writer, created during her residency with LVMH Métiers d'Art. Mixing sculpture, photomontage, film, and sound, and drawing inspiration from archives, African mythology, science, and science fiction, she deconstructs notions of origin, identity, and race. The book is divided into two parts: one explores her rich sources of inspiration, while the other presents the works produced during her residency. An original text by the artist adds depth to this publication, where narratives of emancipation and imagined worlds intertwine to envision inclusive and resilient communities.
