This first photobook made by Alexia Monduit, Into my song, invites us to a deep sinuous and dark journey into the depths of the psyche of the artist. Her work is an obscure rebus, like a David Lynch's movie. Her "song" is to be decrypted, her images remained unresolved. Words become clues. Black and white self-portraits are presented next to screenshots from a Jean Rouch's documentary. Blanks are to be filled on graph pages and psychoanalytical symbols are everywhere. The brutality of certain pictures contrasts with the delicacy of the japanese paper. Both mental and visceral, Into my song is a striking hand-made photobook.

Softcover in a slipcase, 300 x 200 mm. Sew binding. Japanese paper. First edition, 2017. Text in English and in French. Edition limited to 30 handmade numbered and signed copies with a print pasted on slipcase (each print is different). Very collectible.
