In the spring of 2021, Ariane Lessard, a rising voice in Quebec literature, was in a virtual residency at the Hotel des Autrices in Berlin. Ariane Lessard’s writing explores the relationship to place, nature, and society, through ecofeminist, magical, and decolonial angles. For two months, the author worked on the creation of a literary object around the topos of the Hotel. Starting June 5, you can discover Ariane Lessard’s work in a short video performance.
