France, 1953
Self-taught, nomadic at heart, traveling by sea, in the wilderness, within different cultures, Salamandre has always made surrealist, poetic oil paintings, peopled with symbols and hijacked objects to awaken our freedom to dream. To look differently. Salamandre tries to call attention to the nature to which we belong and which brings us so many benefits, to respect it, to stop wanting to dominate it, to listen to its wisdom, to see its beauty, to defend it.
