recueil du soldat

At the beginning of 2025, I completed my military service, which I then continued with my payment of gallons as a sergeant. Doing my military service was relatively important to me; it was mainly the experience itself that interested me. I started writing relatively often during my service, to express my thoughts on the moment, on the army, on the world. This publication brings together his unforgettable textual and pictorial memories in a labyrinthine and absurd work that eternally reflects the issues of war and the world. Everything is written in coded characters (Incognita, Resistance, Liosange) that I drew, sometimes during my service. All the subtlety is conveyed through form; I shout and write to express myself, and thus to make myself heard. However, I encrypt my messages, thereby sabotaging my own catharsis as well as that of humanity. Encryption also provides protection for the reader, who will have the choice of delving deeper into the reading and the work by decrypting the material, thus choosing to confront these often violent texts.
