Petite nature is Stéphanie Garzanti’s first literary work. It is composed of a series of chiseled and offbeat texts, where she mixes writing exercises based on the corpus of iconic feminist texts (Monique Wittig, Virginia Wolf, etc.), and personal writing work on themes such as: “merveilleuxquotidien” (“marvelousdaily”), metamorphoses, landscape, books, arts, love, lesbians, memories, childhood, working-class environments. A reflection on the power of words and a work of recreation of the language crossed by a saving humor.

The author

Stéphanie Garzanti lives and works in Paris. She studied at the Beaux-arts de Lyon and at the École du Magasin in Grenoble. For the past few years, she has been developing works that combines reproductions of artworks from art history and text-slogans taken from public space, which she combines to create images that attempt to renew the meaning we usually attribute to representations. Her drawings have been published in Frog, exhibited at the Grant Wahlquist Gallery in Portland and at L’Artothèque in Caen, published as postcards and risographs presented in bookstores. She also practices experimental and poetic writing, notably in the workshop “How To SupPress University Writing”, and has read her texts in the art centers Bétonsalon in Paris, L’Artothèque in Caen and also on DUUU radio.

Strong points

After the success of Les orageuses and Viendra le temps du feu and the publication of La vie têtue, a new literary text in the collection “Sorcières”.

First literary text by Stéphanie Garzanti, a visual artist well known in the feminist world.

A work that articulates homage to feminist literary icons and recreation of language to question its limits and its emancipatory power.
