Like most of my drawings and paintings, this one is about
travels. About limitless horizons. The pictures I added acryllic paint lines
on, is a picture I took when I was in Huanchaco, a small town close to Trujillo
(Peru). In the background, we can see dusk falling on the
Pacific Ocean. In the foreground, two boats are standing on the sand. They highlight a third one in the
Ocean. Those boats, called « caballitos de totora » ( = little totora
horses), were already used by Chimu and Moche cultures centuries ago to fish.
The lines I painted on this pictures represent the omnipresence of colours in
Latin America countries.
When I showed this painting to Fabienne, a friend of mine who
is an anthropologist, she very spontanenously wrote those few beautiful lines :
« Voyages, lignes et cassures de vie, carrefours et incompréhension. »
(Travels, lines and breaks of life, crossroads and misunderstanding). She’s the
author of a book based on a study about Swiss Alps moutain hut’s evolution :
« Les cabanes de montagnes ».
