Dryad

With Dryad, Séverine Pineaux explores themes at the heart of Brocéliande’s identity: the forest, legends and the role of female figures in these tales. Through her characters inspired by the plant world, she offers a sensitive vision of nature that is at once protective, mysterious and resilient. This contemporary interpretation of the links between life, memory and the passing down of traditions echoes the imaginings that have always inhabited the Forest of Brocéliande.
