Rim Battal has “established herself as one of the strongest voices of young French-language poetry” (Vogue). After studying journalism at the Institut Supérieur de l’Information et de la Communication in Rabat and the Ecole Supérieure de Journalisme Paris, she now devotes herself to creative writing, mixing poetry, the body and visual arts in her performances. Rim Battal is interested in sexuality, motherhood, power relations in romantic and filial love, and the current state of the world in general. In 2022, Castor Astral published her first personal anthology in paperback: “Mine de rien”. February 2024 saw the publication of her eighth book, “x et excès”, also by Le Castor astral.
