About the Book
Bal de tête is a dark and poetic artist book by Chloé Poizat. In a sequence of small, intricately drawn illustrations, she invites us into a ghostly interspace: children sprout from trees, heads dissolve into smoke, bodies appear mutilated and decapitated.
These beings—half-human, half-beast, half-comedy, half-trauma—seem banished from collective memory. Poizat constructs a visual cabinet of curiosities that evokes Odilon Redon, Gourmelin, or Virgil Finlay—with Lautréamont’s shadow always close by.
A book like a silent nightmare, wordless yet full of meaning—for those who find beauty in the grotesque.
