 Where could we find poetry ?


Just around us, poetry takes birth between reality and dreamlike world. Always at the limit.
Lysiane Bourdon is a belgian visual artist born in Brussels and living in the coutryside. Her universe speaks about the body, the garden and its extension to the nature, the border where she lives, the way she dreams during night. Also, some evocations of animals and her house, this invisible boat on water.
A full research around mystery and onirism.
The forms are built in objects-sculpture, experimental photography, writing.
The whole gathered into installations.
