Description
A sailor on traditional sailboats, illustrator, comic book artist, and painter, Sophie Ladame shares drawings and paintings inspired by her vivid memories of sailing—especially when she comes across magnificent classic boats on the water!
Invitation to an exceptional "journey" to the heart of one of the most mysterious and isolated islands on our planet: Easter Island. 27°07' South, 109°21' West.
Painter-portraitist Delphine Poulain, member of the prestigious Explorers Club of New York, former professional navigator, renowned lecturer and guide to archaeological explorations, transports you to Easter Island with vibrant authentic portraits and an entire Pascuan universe reconstituted in the intimate setting of the Lavoir Vasserot, in the heart of Saint-Tropez.
An artistic rendezvous and a rare opportunity to explore the history of a people with uncommon island resilience, who have preserved their identity, their language and all the richness of their culture through the centuries: the RAPA NUI, as Easter Island is now known, one of the last of the Water Peoples. Descendants of the great Pacific migrations in sailing pirogues, they became Bird Men... One of the most enigmatic civilizations in the South Pacific.
A unique immersive experience to feel the magic of this isolated territory, where authenticity still prevails. Visitors will be able to chat with the artist, who lives on Easter Island with his French family, and enjoy a selection of previously unseen works inspired by 30 years of passion, respectful exploration, silent listening, daily sharing and intimate friendships with this unique people.
