The book of Slates of Heaven will be drawn as a counterpoint to that of Inscapes, published in October 1994. With François Dilasser, we had the idea, in the following years, to continue our exploration, to continue the history, the analysis and the illustration. We will therefore find in this new work the trace of our meditations, quotes from Duns Scotus and Gerard Manley Hopkins, a discovery of the Carolingian Abbey of Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu, a stay in the Land of Magic with Henri Michaux.
We should add to this our Imaginary Journeys among the Hopi Indians and the Eskimos. And this account of our visit with François and Antoinette of the Carpaccios to the Scuola di San Giorgio in Venice. Like that of the Scrovegni Chapel, for the frescoes of Giotto, in Padova. I can add that this two-part exhibition of our work is given today in memory of the blue schists at the threshold of the Rue des Douves, in Lesneven, and of the wind that blows in the cove of Goulven.
