“From one reading to the next (from one glance to the next), we realise that what we have here is a kind of mise en abyme. In the words of Véronique Wautier and the drawings/paintings of Godelieve Vandamme, the one calling the other — being called by the other. We are sheltered, we are the shelter, we are the current and what the current carries away, we are the very gentle moment in the violence that gentleness inhabits. We are the poem-shelter that can only shatter. And yet we are that presence in life where everything holds together. Everything, even this us that trust sometimes binds together — the birds say so. Perhaps the birds know what they are losing? Putting it up for us?”
Marc Dugardin
