Gwénaël Saliou / Beaumanoir School

Gwénaël Saliou - Brittany

From social worker to photographer, Gwënael Saliou has had an interesting career. Nevertheless, his main interest has always been with other human beings. Whether he works for the press or for private companies, on land or in the sea, his portraits and photographic reports always stem from interaction. He has an inquisitive eye, but his work first and foremost focusses on putting forth the singularity of what it is that he photographs.

"Make your life a dream and a dream come true", Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

Let's dream of nature

Now let's dream of nature,
For a better future,
Wrapped in greenery.
A moment of hope,
I n the darkest days.
A dream, just an escape
A reflection of lightness ...

I keep on dreaming

I dream
I’m dreaming about another world
A world where I’m a forest
But also a world where everything is possible.

I dream
They always say, ‘believe in your dreams’
The more I think about it, the less I think this is possible
But I carry on without caring about what other people think.

I dream,
I dream I’m dreaming about fairies, about breath, about legends and love
I’m dreaming in black and white, pink and red
I let my imagination run free on my sheets of paper.

I dream like children
I dream to see us all together
Without shame, without hatred, without violence, without suspicion

I dream
It’s easy to say « I want to become this »
They say « If you want to, you can do it » but not here !
Here, everything is complicated but I keep on dreaming.

I’m lost in my dreams
Stuck between dreams and reality, I’m drifting
I take my dreams for realities
But I keep dreaming

In Your Dreams

Where everythings is possible and achievable
with no limits, no borders, no pressure

What if, in my dreams….
I fly with unicorns,
I'm a mermaid,
I share Harry Potter’s fantasy world
I sail on the windy oceans.
I dream of a world where animals can speak and move in space.

From the simplest to the most extravagant,
Children and adults are carried away by this magical dream
which is at the core of our freedom.
