" Painting interpreted in mosaics "

with Juanito

 

     

Juanito is a French artist-mosaicist in Montpellier. His mosaics- and watercolour works are remarkable.

 
 

 

Being a large worshipper of his city, Jean opened for me the beauty and the variety of Montpellier.

   
   
           
       

 

Montpellier is a dynamic and modern city of 228 000 inhabitants and 60 000 students, created thousand years ago.

The capital of Languedoc-Roussillon, located at the edge of Méditerrannée, Montpellier is since its origins town of a cultural and economic mixing where one harmoniously cultivates arts and sciences, technology and softness of living.

The meeting with Juanito brought me to an interpretation of a painting into contemporary mosaics.

My principal intention was to be able to associate various materials and methods in the same work.

   

 

The realization of this project lasted several months with regular meetings and practical advices. We had also an exchange of opinion by e-mailing.
