Biography
Sbrissa was born in 1971 in Geneva and currently lives there.[2]
Sbrissa studied at the Institut Littéraire de Bienne.[2]
After a period of time writing for theater plays, Sbrissa gained interest in the vocal dimension of poetry. She experiments with different forms of performing poetry by mingling polyphony and the interference of several languages. Her poetry gives importance to the orality, revisiting canonical forms and translations in a creative way. She often uses translation in an unknown language, thus exploring the musicality of language and emphasizing it over the function of communication.
Her poems mix together different languages, putting forth similarities in their vocal universe, deploying open significations deriving towards a form of singing.[3]
