Chèr.es artistes is the trace of fifteen interviews with dramaturge artists, to invite them to share their intimate and political concerns. The interviews are organised around questions at the heart of the collective: working conditions, professional difficulties, relationships to institutions, but also joys and anger.

The identity composes an alphabet of fifteen signs: each artist has their own pictogram, which becomes their signature in the book. Gathered in a single graphic family, these signs convey the plurality of practices while keeping the collective form of the project. The typography lets the speech itself be read. The name of each speaker is set small before their line, and the type weight conveys the tone and volume of the voice: the stroke thickens when speech asserts itself and lightens when it softens. The typographic grey thus evolves over the course of the exchange, like a sound trace of the interview. Along the page edges, red markers line up to form a stepped pattern on the fore-edge of the closed book.
