Arboglyphes is the sequel to Jephan de Villiers' book, Figures of Silence, published in 2021.
Jephan de Villiers' writings fly from conscience to conscience. They might be Arabic, Indian or African. Horizontal or vertical, over the years they have become a series of musical scores. Scales, even. Not a day goes by without him writing.
"I always write standing up, as if my body was already moving towards something else, the other, as if I was about to move across the paper."
Every day, this instinctive movement towards the other provides a vital thread, a connection in an existence surrounded by glyphs, whose airy furrows have dug their way into the incandescent humus of memory.
From the Preface by Caroline Lamarche
