Life with Fifi

Kris Dittel, Angelica Falkeling

Fiction €18.00

A children’s book without a specific age category, offering a glimpse into the small rituals and shared moments that shape a day with Fifi Paris.

Fifi, a Pomeranian-Chihuahua mix, came into the lives of Angelica and Kris a few years ago. Taking care of a puppy is taking responsibility for building their world and letting the small animal transform yours. As her human caretakers, the authors created Fifi’s world with toys, cuddles, rules, snacks and walks in the park. In return, she transforms our world by bringing our community together and reminding us of the importance of caring for one another. In this book, Kris and Angelica narrate a day in the life of Fifi, from the moment she wakes up to when she falls asleep at night. Along the way, they share how they connect with her, how they see her understanding her surroundings and what she has taught them about companionship.

Fair Arts Almanac 2019

SOTA

Zines €10.00

In 2019 SOTA finished the first Fair Arts Almanac. The content of the book was generated during a week long summer camp in 2018 with about 70 contributors. The result was a bundling of tips & tricks, statements & demands, visions & ideas, dates & data, testimonies & voices, addresses & announcements on fairness within the complex relationships between the artistic, political and economic sphere. The compilation of various contributions in this first edition was deliberately associative and open for debate, full of contradictions, loose ends and inconsistencies.

Mourn Baby Mourn

Katerina Andreou

Poetry €12.00

Mourn Baby Mourn explore la question du deuil et de la lamentation, tant intime que collective, à travers les états qu’ils génèrent. En trois actes pulsatoires, l’autrice pose les mots, massifs comme des parpaings ou les expulse, offensifs et spontanés tels des projectiles. Ce monologue parcourt les désordres émotionnels caractéristiques des temps contemporains, marqués par la nostalgie de futurs perdus. Dans ce texte-vortex hanté par les imaginaires et les visions discordantes d’un devenir collectif, l’écriture de soi est une existence agissante, et une résistance. 

Le texte est issu de la pièce chorégraphique éponyme de Katerina Andreou créée en 2022.

Conception graphique : Angeline Ostinelli

Édité avec le soutien de BARK, du CCN-Caen en Normandie dans le cadre du dispositif artiste associé et de Charleroi Danse.
