Born in 1981, in La Seyne-sur-Mer, to a navigator father and a designer mother, Katell Le Jeune grew up on the beaches of Les Sables d'Olonne. After studying applied arts in Nantes and graduating from the merchant navy in her pocket, she set sail for the Antilles to live her sunny dreams, following in the footsteps of Sophie Ladame, Titouan Lamazou and other traveling artists.
His painting was born there. Stimulated by the graphic and colorful strength of this tropical nature. His work is developed in a maritime universe and is enriched by other explorations.
Poetic testimonies, tributes to nature, Katell navigates freely between figuration and abstraction, her expression clarifying her own language over the series. She mainly paints with a knife on canvas, with acrylic. Color is clearly the main game in his work.
Stéphane Foulquier draws his inspiration from the waves of the Atlantic coast in Rivedoux-Plage but also around the world. He materializes this inspiration in his studio on the Île de Ré. Whether in patinated bronze or resin, it captures the power and majesty of the waves to transform them into unique and immobile sculptures.
