The summer exhibition

In *Dryad*, Séverine Pineaux imagines a future in which humanity has disappeared. A gigantic tree now covers the Earth and seeks to piece together the world’s memory from the traces left behind by past civilisations.

To assist it in this quest, dryads — creatures that are half-human, half-plant, inspired by Greek mythology — explore the ruins of the ancient world in search of forgotten memories.

Through her works, the artist celebrates the power of life, the passing on of knowledge, and the role of the feminine in the balance of nature. A sensitive, poetic and mysterious world that will appeal to fantasy enthusiasts and forest lovers alike.

An exhibition that echoes the imagination of Brocéliande

The forest, legends, female figures, the connection between humans and nature… These are all themes that resonate with the world of Brocéliande.

Séverine Pineaux’s creations are a natural extension of the imagination that inhabits this iconic region, offering a contemporary perspective on the tales, mysteries and richness of the living world.

Whether you’re visiting with your family, a fan of fantasy illustration or simply curious, this exhibition is a wonderful opportunity to further your exploration of Brocéliande.
