Couleurs de Dinard – a diptych where silence meets play
These works have taken shape in Dinard – born from the light of this place, the rhythm of the sea, and the ever-changing colours of the coast.
Two paintings, two ways of remembering Dinard – through colour, through feeling, through the eye.
The first work captures the breath of the blue hour. When the day quiets and sky and sea merge in a whisper of blue and green, with no contours, no story – only the movement of colour, the weightless presence of the moment. No boats, no detail – just light, air, and the almost abstract breath of the sea.
The second work approaches the sea with a different heart – a naïve expression, where the world is simplified to reveal the essential. A few boats, almost like paper cut-outs, rest on a vast blue stretching toward the horizon. A playful interpretation, where the maritime becomes shape and colour rather than realism – where the joy of impression leads the hand.
Together, they form Couleurs de Dinard – a diptych where silence meets play, and where gouache’s matte pigments carry the colours of the Breton coast: muted, vivid, and full of memory.
