Writing is very important in the work of Lucie Picandet: she writes fictions, both in verse and in prose, which for the most part are starting points for her productions. It is the case of “Dalle du Lad,” a long initiatory poem in prose from which she drew a sizeable body of works on paper. Her work combines different techniques—embroidery, watercolour, writing, and painting—revealing a complex, poetic, and surreal world.
