Aucun programme informatique n’a été utilisé pour créer ou composer ces photos, mais seulement l’œil affûté d’artiste peintre qui voit et saisit l’invisible. Ces photos sont toutes des représentations de la réalité, le témoignage de découvertes faites dans la nature et par hasard. Cette série de Photographies Abstraites invite le spectateur à les regarder et se laisser emporter par le rêve éveillé qu’elles lui inspireront.

ART CRITIC by Warren Potash, Photographer of Nature, Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA, May 11, 2012
Marie-Pierre’s palette is her camera.
Her photos are like no other.
They are mysterious and magnetic.
They lead to the unexplored.
The journey must be a Whole New Experience if you are willing to open your imagination and relinquish control.
______________
ART CRITIC by Philippe BOBY de la CHAPELLE, Villefranche / Mer, France, October 1rst, 2010
In the explosion of colored touches, Marie-Pierre signals us with bursts from mineral depths.
As my friend, the great photographer Edouard Boubat (1923-1999) once said: “The photograph is a kind of gift from nature, one of the unforeseen, it surpasses our expectations!”
There is always a revelation in the images that Marie-Pierre offers us. In her “Lyrical Extraction”, she rescues us from our normal visual habits to allow us to discover the treasure hidden in this colored nature from marine depths.
George Sand (1804-1876) said: “Art is a demonstration of which nature is the proof.” Here we are in a dazzling discovery of enlivened matter the likes of which caused Maurice Guerin (1810-1839) to say in his “Cahier vert”: “Form is the happiness of matter, the eternal embracing of its atoms. In their union, matter rejoices and becomes beatified.”
I strongly hope that all those who will have the pleasure of following Marie-Pierre in her Lyrical Extraction will be able to temporarily set aside their woes in order to contemplate this mineral world at the bottom of the swells; this universe of waves from whence we have never ceased emerging since our first marine ancestors.
The painter Henri Matisse (1869-1954) who illuminated his canvases with the many landscapes of the Riviera didn't hesitate to say: “It is upon entering into the object that one arrives into one's own skin.” (in “Prestiges de Matisse” by André Verdet).
Marie-Pierre is from Rennes, like my ancestors who lived on the banks of the Vilaine. She has never given up her Breton liveliness, allowing us to discover our paradisal universe.
Philippe Boby de la Chapelle is a writer, conference lecturer, Doctor of Theology, Master of Art History. He was the international specialist jurist of Human Rights for the United Nations, Unesco and the Council of Europe, and a diplomatic envoy of the Vatican. He is also the grandson of Gaston and Suzanne Bernheim de Villers, founders and owners of the “Galerie Bernheim et Jeune” in Paris. He is the author of a variety of publications, notably La Declaration Universelle des Droits de L'Homme et le Catholicisme, Editions Durand Pichon Auzias, Paris 1967, honored by the Academie Francaise and prefaced by Rene Cassin, Nobel Peace Prize winner - and other books such as Paradis retrouvé, un itineraire artistique, Editions Cercle d' Art, Paris, 2005.

Involved since 1999 with IAA-UNESCO's humanitarian and artistic endeavors, Marie-Pierre is honored to be mandated by Maestra Rosa Maria Burillo Velasco, Honorary World President of IAA-UNESCO (International Association of Art, ONG in official partnership with UNESCO), to create celebrations of WORLD ART DAY along with her personal art events every 15 April, such as - 1st ever in Brittany, France, 2014, and 1st ever in USA, Los Angeles, 2015.
