"Un interieur bourgeois fin 19e siecle" This is one of the oldest bourgeois villas (1887) in the town center. Through the different rooms of the house, a reconstruction of a typical interior of the period, you'll discover a collection of traditional Creole costumes, jewelry, paintings and documents retracing some of Martinique's great historical moments.

I invite you to step into my world... Usually, I guide you along the way. I create the conditions that allow for free, intuitive artistic expression—one rich in discoveries and encounters with the self. This time, I’ve decided to step to the other side of the experience. To create for myself. To let myself be surprised by the materials, the colors, the marks. Not always knowing where I’m going… and accepting that I’ll discover it along the way. I explore and get to know myself better through this exercise—one that is at once intuitive, so natural, and sometimes so disorienting. I’ve embarked on this new adventure with the desire, today, to open the door to you. To let you discover my world. My marks. My colors. My way of bringing out what wasn’t there before. Welcome to TRACES PLURI-AILES, my first exhibition—an invitation to discover another facet of myself: the Artist. A concept store showcasing Martinican art and craftsmanship.

This is the first exhibition of what is shaping up to be a particularly busy fall for me. I’m delighted to present, at the Cabinet Medical Etang Z’Abricot in Fort-de-France, a selection from the *Surface/Interior* series, which explores layers, openness, and what lies beneath the surface. These works are created using paper I make myself, worked with ink and through the oxidation of iron. STRATES from September 19 to November 21, 26. Opening reception on September 19 from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Open daily from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. / Saturdays by appointment: Dr. Charles Jean-Laurent 0696 70 69 99, Muryelle Moulferdi 0696 91 97 04.
