Envie d’en apprendre un peu plus sur la culture kanak ? Sur l’art de sculpter la pierre à savon? D’un peu de dépaysement néo-calédonien? Et le tout en anglais ?
Rendez-vous sur Momentum Travel pour y lire ma première collaboration :
« Sculpting is more than a form of expression for the Kanak people—it’s a way of shaping their identity and place in the world.
‘I don’t choose what I’m going to sculpt’, says Jean-Paul Touabat. ‘I just look at the shape of the rock and it inspires me.’ In time, his hands reveal all sorts of creatures hidden in the tender stone: men, kagu birds, fish.
Touabat, from the Yambé tribe, has been shaping creatures in soapstone for 30 years. Like many of New Caledonia’s Kanak sculptors, he doesn’t talk much and doesn’t define himself as an artist. »
La suite, c’est par ici !
