Lord Tanjah was born on July 18, 1965, in Grenoble. He is an artist of drift, a poet of desire, of sovereign anarchy and the impossible community, in the lineage of Nietzsche, Georges Bataille, and Antonin Artaud's Theatre of Cruelty. He has published six books, unclassifiable in style and form: a collection of poems, fragmented narratives, a journal, theoretical fragments, feverish monologues, imprecations, and furtive, proverbial notes. For Lord Tanjah, the experience of writing is always an existential struggle, a merciless rebellion, a game of passion and death where extremes and antagonisms alternate. Sacredness reigns within it, but so do humor and derision. Everything is decisive. His injunctions are declarations of love. His provocations are disguised as farce. His figures are both divine and bestial. He pushes the concept toward myth, where idolatry becomes art. If he is a tormented mystic, he is also an unscrupulous blasphemer. A reptile adrift, he knows how to play with all forms of mise en abyme with virtuosity. His writing, penetrating beyond form and style, has always hunted for the original voice, the sonic pulse of the beginning. "The theater" imposes itself, but as an alchemy of the visible, as a neutral space where psychology is reduced to nothing, logic is dismembered, and only planes of poetic ecstasy succeed one another. His visions of a Fellini-esque darkness have no equivalent in the current state of degradation, this institutionalized void where all the abject partisans of falsification spread.
