Polynesia in colours…..
Philippe Dubois shows us on his paintings parts of the daily life of Polynesian people: fishing, traveling in a truck (bus), a cargo ship delivering its goods, a vahine on her bicycle….
Always faithful to his own style, we can find once again characters without faces, very simple landscapes and a range of colours made of marine and turquoise blue contrasting with blazing yellow and red colours that warm up just by looking at it. This year the artist also proposes some shades of brown used in a low-key manner such as in the “The reading” scene for example. Those paintings are very pleasant to see and take the audience in the heart of the Polynesian culture. You can relax for a moment of serenity and forget the fast rhythm of modern life.
If you come along during this time of the year, you can gaze at Dubois’s paintings. If you are there during another period, don’t hesitate to have a look in the gallery because there is always something interesting to see in there.
