At Drouot, the artist, a master of vinyl, creates atmospheres and shares his emotions through inspiring subjects. From horizons once rooted in reality to imaginary creations of ports and seascapes, each canvas opens a window onto a benevolent world and weaves a cocoon to share a space of timeless gentleness. This duality between realism and escapism characterizes Jacques Guillet's artistic approach. He revisits maritime themes with remarkable freedom, oscillating between precise details and evocative minimalism.
