“Basically, I was thinking open-air kidnappings,” Alix tells us.

She is being quite serious. 

Alix Eynaudi works between craft & chaos. She doesn’t work alone; any invitation is an alibi to spend time with accomplices, a mesh of friendships scintillating under skins.

A prolongation of last year’s travelling library, here comes Insomnia, a word of mouth: a miniature forever recessive, cruising the edges, the riverbanks, the margins of festivals. Three women – Anne, Anne, and Alix – cruise the undergrowth of a public event. The annotation to an event, they forage through their libraries together with an audience, in an open-air dark room. A joyful act of bibliomancy.

The books do things in spite of themselves. They get along with each other, they get in touch across activities, readings, translations and (mis)interpretations, together they hold a (social) space where we talk to each other. Insomnia, a word of mouth welcomes and encourages the formation of lines and fissures along this space of sharing.
