Pierre Boccara – Résidence d’artiste à l’Âne Vert Février et Mars 2020
Pierre est un architecte d’intérieur Né à Casablanca, a passé son enfance et adolescence à Marrakech, après son baccalauréat en 1984 il obtient en 1990 un diplôme d’architecture intérieure et de design à Paris. Après un voyage en Asie du sud-est ou il participe à divers projets, il rentre au Maroc en 1996 pour travailler sur des tournages de films et concevoir et réaliser des objets pour la maison. Installé depuis 2002 à la réunion, il continue à créer du mobilier en détournant de leur fonction première des matériaux naturels et industriels.
Loin de la civilisation, il a pu pendant son mois de résidence au lodge donner libre cours à sa créativité. On ressent dans ses créations une certaine introspection et il ressort de ses œuvres une simplicité toujours teintée d’une touche d’humour. Disséminées dans le lodge vous pouvez venir les contempler pendant les prochaines semaines sur la terrasse, dans le restaurant, dans le jardin ou sur différents murs proches de la réception !

Walking the world
Meet Flavien Liottier, an inspiring french man that sold all his belongings, packed his bag, and started a world wide walking adventure.
He began in Soustons (south-west France), made his way down to Portugal, met us along the way at L’Ane Vert and is heading down to Senegal. Following coastlines, climbing cliffs, heading in the direction of the wildest lost tracks, Flavien is searching for the less-beaten path.
He will make his way to Cape Verde and pick up a ride on a boat to travel all the way to Brazil!
What an inspiration to see more and more eco travellers absorbing every step, and making the little things count. We wish you the best of luck Flavien! He has created a great blog where you can follow his adventures and maybe find a little motivation for your next eco holiday/life change.
A bike journey from France to South Africa and maybe further. A photo and a word a day. A snatch of life gleaned and shared.
Always going forward on ecological decisions and environmental caring, We are proud to support Clotaire Mandel, alias Le Pedalistan in his bike journey around the world. For the moment we support him by buying, solar cells, water filter, water tank and USB battery,etc… We hope in the futur, helping him to develop and edit a travel and photography book.

ⵜⴰⵥⵓⵕⵉ
We are very happy and pleased to have recently hosted our 8th Artist Residency with Samuel Dougados that stayed with us for an amazing Environmental Art Project that took place in Tafedna.
It was a real pleasure to watch the creation and development of the incredible and imposing shapes on the sand of our pristine beach that you can see on the pictures. The most impressive part is that no tools have been used besides his very particular rake.
A big thank you Samuel for this fantastic happening and opportunity to have discovered such a great talent and to also make us be a part of your Artistic projects.
We will be very glad to have you back soon!
