This series, The Book of Dreams, is an invitation to travel through our dreams, in search of our lost memories, of all those ancient places, memories of humanity that still vibrate deep within us. This poem by Baudelaire often resonates with me: “Nature is a temple where living pillars sometimes let out confused words; Man passes through forests of symbols that observe him with familiar eyes”.
The use of watercolor combined with white gouache enables me to capture fleeting moments, to express inner landscapes with spontaneity.
In this work, I sought to capture the diffuse light of a sunrise through the trees. The use of watercolor and white gouache is a deliberate choice to convey the fluidity and transparency of the elements. The delicate hues evoke a peaceful dawn at the edge of the woods, inviting contemplation. The symbolic lines of the trees dipping their roots into the river remind us of the alliance between earth and water.
