Ya Rayah

Company
Alis
Year of production
2001

Discreetly madcap, “Ya Rayah” collects very different items and pictures such as smoking shoes; feet x-rays…

Discreetly wacky, Ya Rayah proceeds with the motley collection of objects and images. In the course of this enumeration we find fuming shoes, a strolling typography, X-rays of feet… The assembly of these materials depicts a playful journey, revealing the movement of a writing in the process of writing. Where we rediscover the poetic gesture dear to the imagination of ALIS, whose work is inspired by Oulipo poets’s methods.

The approach of ALIS, a group founded by Dominique Soria and Pierre Fourny, does not conform to standards. It focuses on the search for a new expression by using a variety of artistic disciplines. Normally, their compositions are performed on stage or deployed in art galleries. Following La Complainte du progrès, this film once again opens up, to a music by Dahmane el Harrachi, a rich field of investigation for their cheerful and skilfully organised comments.
