After a long winter of staying inside, radiates the first beautiful day with sunshine and freedom, gorgeous, frequently reflected in the water, sucked in by me, still somewhat apart I should wait behind the fence, still a symbol of limitation. Again, a work of unity of man and nature, painted in backlight. From dark to light.

Gabriella Cleuren, Children and woman at the beach, 2011

Brittany’s nature is a powerful primeval element, especially the ocean that violently crashes against the rocks and the seashore, but also leads to magnificent beaches and islands. That fascination for sand and water is visible in my works‘; the remarkable daily occurring sandy connection of the mainland to the island of Raquenez is the theme. The tide exposes the corridor or closes it at moment’s notice. This rhythm repeats itself every six hours and gives the passageway a very significant charm, where people repetitively discover small crustaceans, shells, wondrous rocks and creeks, spending hours in exploration, fascinated by all treasures that wash up from the sea, which are never identical.
