Zarlor, from the Reunionese Creole “Jar of Gold” is an invitation to explore the wild landscapes of Reunion Island, an immersive journey into childhood memories intertwined with beliefs drawn from the myths and legends that fueled my adolescent readings. Greek mythology thus becomes the canvas on which I paint the narrative of my personal odyssey, while evoking that of a community harmoniously merging with the natural elements that surround them.
My works draw their essence from the enigmatic history of our island, where energies move in an invisible dance, recalling the birth of the volcano which, millions of years ago, emerged from the ocean. Zarlor is an artistic and spiritual quest, a profound immersion into our island identity, an intimate embrace with the nurturing nature around us.
