Atelier de poésie

What if the garden became a source of inspiration?

As part of the Merveilles d'Ateliers au Jardin weekend, visual artist Camille Perreau invites you to look around, slow down and let the words flow. Her poetic workshop takes root in the heart of an extraordinary garden, staged for the occasion: beehives inhabited by secret decorations, photographic suspensions hung in the trees, sculptures scattered through the greenery and relaxation areas nestling along the path. Every nook and cranny is an invitation to stop, observe, feel - and then write.

Guided by the site and its installations, participants are invited to pick out the words to weave a living poem - their own. You don't need any particular experience or talent: just a desire to let the garden speak through you, to take the time to look differently at what surrounds you and to put into words what you're feeling.

The workshop is part of the poetic stroll offered throughout the weekend, inviting visitors to wander freely between the works of the eleven exhibiting craftspeople, as part of the Rendez-vous aux Jardins, a national event under the aegis of the Ministry of Culture.

Open to all, no experience required. Free admission.
