Sophie Brillouet
GERMANY
Sophie Brillouet is an art craftsman specializing in the staging of natural, uncut and non-colored seashells. Humanity is deeply linked to seashells for their aesthetic, nurturing, symbolic and spiritual qualities. These natural treasures echo his childhood in Charente-Maritime, with the Atlantic Ocean and its creatures as subjects for contemplation. Sophie Brillouet made her debut in 2014, as artistic assistant to Blott Kerr-Wilson in France and the United States of America (Palm Beach / Florida). At the end of 2015, she chose to follow her own path, guided by her director’s eye, her inspirations born in travels and her artistic references: Surrealism, the Nabis movement and Pop art in particular. Humor and spirituality also feature prominently in her research.
