(XIIe siècle) Sen, des langues germaniques, direction, chemin
(XIe siècle) Du latin sensus, percevoir par les sens, ressentir
Les mots sen et sensus se sont mutuellement influencés.
Sen—sus est une édition recueillant des poèmes qui évoquent des souvenirs personnels et intimes. L’écriture permet de garder une trace de ces souvenirs et de les faire revivre à travers leur lecture.
La sensorialité est au cœur de ce projet. En effet, on retrouve tout au long de ces textes des mots relatifs aux cinq sens. Ce vocabulaire sensoriel est traduit par un système de formes organiques, aboutissant à un langage graphique spécifique à ce projet.
La mise en page se compose en fonction du texte et des mots présents, inscrits dans une colonne qui leur est dédiée. Les formes qui accompagnent les mots choisis sont mis en page plus librement, rappelant une notation rythmique.
Le lecteur-trice peut choisir de suivre le chemin narratif proposé par l’ouvrage ou alors décider d’emprunter son propre sen.
