X et Excès, avec Rim Battal / La Bellone, Bruxelles, le 24/06/25

“X et excès” is a performance created for the 10th anniversary of Homografia, bringing together poet Rim Battal and musician Isa Stragliati. Together, they explore the body as a site of identity, trauma, power, and resistance. Rim Battal’s evocative text is a meditation on the body’s excesses and limits, delivered through her intense, fluid voice. Isa Stragliati’s live music, with deep hypnotic rhythms and raw techno beats, offer a dark, sensual soundscape that both complements and challenges the poetry. “X et excès” examines the body not only as a personal expression but also as a site of political struggle. It intertwines themes of power, gender, and identity, creating an immersive, visceral experience where sound, language, and the body collide.
