Domaine de Kerguéhennec, Bignan - L'Art dans les Chapelles
The Domaine de Kerguéhennec offers, within its magnificent landscaped park, the pleasure of wandering around and meeting art and heritage. Visitors are invited to wander through the park to discover its sculptures and to enter the 18th century castle, a listed historic monument, and its outbuildings where works by Pierre Tal Coat and exhibitions by contemporary artists are presented.
This year, the Domaine de Kerguéhennec has invited L'art dans les chapelles to produce the artistic programme for the Sainte Trinité chapel, which is part of the Domaine.
Stéphane Thidet's world is both dark and filled with wonder, offering distorted visions of reality. His works suggest an elsewhere, a fiction that is not accessible but perceptible, which confronts the viewer with a new "state of things". Often linked to childhood or entertainment, they reveal a certain loss of innocence, an anxiety, which, through the permanent state of tension they imply, provoke a fertile inner turmoil. Things and situations are removed from the usual use of the world in favour of a hybrid reality, which sets up a game of crossed readings.
