Discover the exhibition by artist Mario Jouzi @ Pérouges

Arriving from Lebanon after years of artistic learning and exploration, Mario Jouzi shares his life through painting, with the intensity of someone who paints to exist. Through his charcoal, oil, and acrylic works, he delves into themes of refuge, dreams, and wanderlust, blending expressionism, impressionism, and a hint of street art. In his canvases, the Palestinian often depicts himself at the heart of the chaos: intersecting silhouettes in the subway, frozen moments, flowers and apples symbolizing love, movement, and simplicity. A true remedy for the grayness of everyday life. And this weekend, just right, we’re heading to soak in a bit of art (and fresh air) in one of the most beautiful villages in France (Pérouges) where the artist unveils “Jouxe The Adventurer”. A sensitive and vibrant exhibition, like an inner travel diary where memories, emotions, and colors intertwine on the canvas.

Rue du For - Pérouges
