🇫🇷 Je sais qu’il ne sera pas compris par grand-monde, car c’est sans doute un des plus abstraits que j’ai pu faire, mais c’est aussi une de mes toiles préférées de l’exposition à l’@hotellasignoria_calvi par @galeriealexispentcheff 🇬🇧 I’m pretty sure that this one won’t be understood by everyone cause it’s one of the more abstract I’ve ever made, but it’s surely one of my favorite paintings I made for the show at @hotellasignoria_calvi by @galeriealexispentcheff https://instagr.am/p/CRe3RZjtY_-/

In French, « transat » is the shortened version of « transatlantique » (transatlantic, going through Atlantic Ocean). But it’s also used to call a deckchair: it comes from the fact that deckchairs were first used on the decks of the big cruise ships sailing over Atlantic Ocean. The whole expression, « transat en solitaire » is used to call the trans-Atlantic races in single-handed sailing (or solo sailing). But, finally, it could also be used to talk about how you can have fun alone on your deckchair 😄.

Transylvania, Romania
“For centuries, the small villages in Transylvania have preserved their hay meadows, raised cattle and operated self-sustainable farms. The agrarian fairytale that is extinct in Western Europe still exists here in bucolic scenes, where young boys learn to cut and rake hay by hand, where all village women are proficient in weaving, and all men can build a house from scratch - with thousands of hard-split wooden shingles on the rooftop. In this old world, defined by traditional belief systems and respect for the environment, one does not trample a meadow of high grass before mowing it, the cows and horses find their way home along the muddy village tracks and the rivers’ water is busy with the milling, washing and alcohol making.“
