This book accompanies the exhibition of Lassaâd Metoui's latest works at the Château des Ducs de Bretagne, Nantes History Museum, as part of the Voyage à Nantes 2024. A painter and calligrapher, Lassaâd Metoui presents series on canvas and works in ink on Japanese Koso paper. He draws his inspiration from Japanese culture, particularly from the writings of the philosopher Kitaro Nishida.

Meditation, Intuition, The World of Nature, The World of Consciousness..., these are the names of these new series of large formats, accompanied by notes of "travel notebooks". Massive black flats, launched curves, lines with ample movement, discs of fluorescent colors or mirror effect, the calligraphic vocabulary of Lassaâd Metoui is fully found in these balanced spaces, in search of light.
