Being a daughter, becoming mother, always being a daughter. Elle voudrait l'ailleurs encore plays with the permutation of femininity in a continuum of changes. What is the driving force of the mother, what is her language, her will of strength and absence ? Where does the daughter escape, with her flaws and scars, in her unquenched desire of the elsewhere ? This book dives into the experience of maternity, unveiling a mother's pain of loss and the complexities of filial love. Giving live, giving (yourself) death, is that what it truly is, to be one with love for the living ? Diane Régimbald's poetry offers a singular passage through memories that ties tales of women and their thirst for freedom to the plural encounters of themselves. The artworks of Sophie Lanctôt seamlessly weave through the poems with a vivid and sensitive presence and invite to this exit of the world permitted by creativity.

l’essence d’être fille
reprendra le terrain
la mère en moi courbera la tête
mais n’effacera jamais
sa tâche
qui de plus coupable qu’elle
pour affronter les batailles ?
pour dire oui
à ce qu’elle tait
ce désir toujours de voler
de prendre les airs
corps ouvert
à l’échappée
