Secret Book, performed at Mains d'Oeuvres; Saint-Ouen, France, 2013

Secret Book reflects reoccurring themes drawn from Hélène Cixous’ Philippines, including telepathy, doubling, and the relationship between dream-life and the limitless imagination of childhood. Rehm transversed the space using the professed secret books of Hélène Cixous and Alexandra Grant, as she enacted a private ritual that explored a transference between the interior and exterior body through quiet meditations and symbolic gestures.

This project was presented in conjunction with Alexandra Grant's Forêt Intérieure/Interior Forest.
