Painter
Matthieu Dorval A culture related to sea, fishing, storm, Breton language, hailing from Finistère. A culture linked to arts, senses, colour blends, deriving from northern Italy. Matthieu Dorval’s paintings exude freshness, rain-washed skies, soft raking light, diffuse energy. From savageness, raging elements, battered heath, poetry emanates, landscape poetics. By a cold snap, burnt by the sun, in drizzle, in between downpours, Matthieu Dorval likes to paint from nature, within reach of the unknown. This “glaz” painter praises the Celtic colour, one that together embodies blue, green, grey, the sea variations. ______________________________________________________________________ |

Chloé Batissou Child of Brest harbour, Chloé Batissou is passionate, stubborn, exacting to herself and others, yet considerate to one and all. Her readiness to absorb the essence of places and beings, as her ability to receive people’s stories, sometimes amazes those who meet her for the first time. Whatever the language, whatever the latitude, as long as the ocean is nearby, the intensity produced in the thoughts exchanged, as much as the trust she generates among individuals, always creates openings to what is close to heart. From her quill, words fill with the tang of salt and the breeze soon captures their lightness. The reader affords confidence. In writing alike, Chloé Batissou remains a child of waves and winds. |
