felicia atkinson is a lo fille of nearly 25 years old. Artist who does drawings, poetry, photographs, sounds, performances...
" I work in l'association gingembre(with elise ladoue) ,play music with stretchandrelax, sylvain chauveau and louisville.
I like cooking, eating, drinking tea and good wine; reading, taking bath, walking, dancing, looking at the window, the rain, the wind, the snow, flowers, highways, frontiers, the market on sunday morning, the notebooks, nice clothes, stupid things but also strange or beautiful things that's it is impossible to write about
i wrote a kind of novel, "louiseville", from which i have performed some excerpts, and i am actually searching for a publisher.
louiseville is available on line http://louiseville.blogspot.com/
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Television:

WE LIKE WHAT WE DO
The cliché is that "THE" is difficult to pronouce. For a french.
Some sounds of fire made by scrateched plastic bubbles.
Nobody take them seriously, because they are two young girls, because they laugh all the time, because they speak to people at the bar counters, because they dress colourfull, because they laugh, because they are not real musicians, because they laugh, because they are nice, because they are snobbish, because they are not snobbish enough, because they are not serious enough, because sometime one cries and the other leave, a faked blonde and a real red haired girl
They made the record in a week
Before they never made any records
Some people are nice the people that like them most of the time are nice people it s difficult to like them and not being a nice person
This could sound pretentious
But that true, nasty people can t like them
Proud people can t like them
There is some green, some objects, the skin is near the grass, the cloth a bit to short
Did you notice that my belly blows very quickly?
They whisper they are making rhymes and white magic
They are four parts for the same gestures
A bed
A pillow
A blanket
A window
A curtain
A nude light
Something is scratching against the paper
Maybe some peas in bag
A whistle
This is about what you could hear what you could play
This is about playing
You know this is not about acting like an adult
The fingers need to be liitle and
Habiles
As we say in french
They move quickly, they are connected to the mouth
This is against violence
They cry they shout they brake plates but
No pain
We don't need to ache again
So some apples
So some apples
Dry or strong
This about what we do
What we love
What we make
This is about our hair our fragility to the sun our throat our feet our money our sympathy our new nice pieces of clothes
We go to the same shop every day for a week
Sometimes we buy
Everything is work
Shoes are work
Ice creams are work
Music is work
We like what we do
We really do
We brush our teeth we live
This is how we live
