The garden, a life story "I started this garden 40 years ago. At the time, I had finished my studies as a landscaper. I shaped this space for my loved ones and for myself. I brought soil, planted trees and shrubs that are now fully mature. My life was divided for a long time between Paris and my activity as an artist-artist, and this garden where I frequently came to recharge my batteries and work in the barn transformed into a workshop. In 2013, I decided to go further and make this garden a work of art. To mix this garden with my career as a visual artist, to introduce new forms, other materials, different plants, and to open it to the public. He is invited to get lost in the alleys, to immerse himself in vegetal atmospheres opening the door to reverie, to discover plants but also a universe suitable to stimulate the imagination. Over the seasons, artists are invited to exhibit their works and my workshop is open during visits. My life now takes place here, in the garden and in the exchange with the different audiences who love art and/or garden." Louis-Marie Catta
