“In the face of devastation reverberating both inside and outside of ourselves, névé dumas offers a fundamental trans-identity of language, which requires—in order to repair without remaking—an elemental kindness. Between voice and body, she initiates a survival poetics that overflows the borders of this aesthetic and humanistic project. Never have we seen such tenderness become so radically political.”
