Matières premières opens with three citations from women—Anne Truitt, Anni Albers, and The Slits—resolutely setting the tone for this first book by visual artist Annie Descôteaux. Somewhere between confession and denial, rebellion and comedy, these brief poetic texts embody unabashed ecofeminist meditations on the place of the artist within the institution, and indeed within everyday life. For Descôteaux, art is an inner experience inextricably tied to the secret lives of things themselves: "I (…) draw strength from the kingdom of objects / the kingdom of colours."
