Michel Le Brigand
Visual arts: writing, photography, video
3 rue Roiné, Trentemoult, 44400 Rezé
Studio no.5
Born in Saint-Malo in 1964, a Trentemoult resident and Loire kayaker, Michel Le Brigand works with words the way a visual artist works with materials: a photographed instant sets off the writing, and the image sometimes comes alive as video. He has written eleven books since Corrections (1995), including Chroniques de la renverse, written from the port of Trentemoult, La Ligne du Bord, about the estuary, and Cités radieuses (2024). He also makes sound pieces, songs and artists' books. He is preparing the photo exhibition 'Meilleure(s) Vue(s)' at Côté 3bis (6–8 November 2026). His studio, no. 5, is tucked at the end of a garden on rue Roiné, and visitors leave with a surprise.
Flyer text
Michel Le Brigand développe une démarche de plasticien des mots et d'écriture photographique. L'instant en est le déclencheur. L'image peut également s'animer pour devenir un réel. En entrant dans l'atelier au cœur du jardin, qui sait ? Vous repartirez avec une surprise.
