En 27 ans d’activité, je n’ai jamais jeté un noeud de bois. Beaucoup de gens voient les nœuds comme un défaut, mais pour moi, les nœuds sont la représentation visuelle des arbres qui luttent pour prospérer. Toutes les petites branches ne deviennent pas de grandes branches, mais leurs efforts combinés en faveur de l’arbre dans son ensemble doivent être célébrés. Comme les cicatrices humaines, elles racontent une histoire de sacrifice et de guérison. Chacune de ces "cicatrices" a une personnalité unique et mérite d’être appréciée comme un art.

In 27 years of activity, I have never thrown a knot of wood. Many people see knots as a flaw, but to me knots are the visual representation of trees struggling to thrive.
Not all small branches grow into large branches, but their combined efforts on behalf of the tree as a whole are to be celebrated. Like human scars, they tell a story of sacrifice and healing.
Each of these "scars" has a unique personality and deserves to be appreciated as art.

I admire paintings of Roerich... One of the main mysteries of the Roerich paintings lies in their unusual coloring. The colors seem to glow, and his palette consists mainly of pure, clear tones.
We used to have Roerich museum in Moscow but on April 28, 2017, the work of the public Museum named after N. K. Roerich was stopped. There was an illegal seizure of the Roerichs' heritage, the Lopukhins' estate, where the public Museum was located by the State Museum of the East with the participation of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation...Some paintings went to the State Museum of the East but most just “disappeared”...

Les artistes récupérateurs. La plasticienne Isabelle Bailly utilise principalement le papier pour la réalisation de ses sculptures, mais aussi parfois des éléments qu'elle trouve dans la nature, comme pour cette belle danseuse faite de branches et de lichen.

thank you for these pictures! I had some invitation to see them in 1990 when I was in Moscow but missed out somehow.
Just disappeared, that seems so wrong....
So glad to see these, they are wonderful, just wonderful, and such reminders of interest back then.
