The Tree Messenger

Ramzi Ghotbaldin, born in Kurdistan, has lived in France since 1990. His painted work lies at the intersection of observation, memory and dreams. The rivers and their meanders, the cliffs, the vegetation of the plateaus and the forests, the omnipresent, imposing and light trees, these are some of its main motifs. In the Messenger of the Trees, which presents a choice of recent paintings, Pierre Dhainaut, poet, evokes their secrets, their songs of life.

You have to ask the trees for everything,
modest, prodigal, they do better than respond,

concentrate, expand, rise:
it's never them they think about,
they distribute their breaths,
the day reveals itself in its cycle, the light
is incarnated, the flesh lights up,

at night, at sensitive night, they give back
vigor to the inexhaustible winds.
