Approach

This ancient view of Creativity, opens us towards the elusive subtlety of a ‘cosmic sense’. This is how the sacred link between art, man, and life reveals itself in its specific forms.

The experience

Is there for us, people of today, a way to experiment and embody these questions? Questions of truth, beauty, goodness, identity and freedom? How can we even feel the necessity of these questions? How can we create or discover Silence and Space in and within ourserselves to hear this intemporal call?

workshops

An ancient song, reminder of ancestors, resounds in space. Just the time of a workshop  and these ancestors become close to us. Through generosity, thanks to Maud Robart’s research, a silence-song unravels, ripe with teachings, as a tale we would have always needed to listen to. And in the long stream of a litany, our wandering spirits fall silent. Caught by the flowing of a spontaneous dance, the subtle excitement of our senses reveals a hidden desire of freedom.

— Thibaut Garçon

— Pablo Jimenez
« What a surprise when, during my first workshop with her, I entered the empty workspace! Only limpidity and silence lived there. And the small lavender bouquet on the window seemed so right, with its purpose of warding off the flies! »

Thanks to Cristina, Eva, Laura, Pablo and Thibaut, my companions in this exploration who have contributed to the creation of this site. Having agreed to dive into the river of these songs employing their sensibility, their heart, and their vigilant attention as tools; they have walked the path towards themselves within the silent yanvalou's originary motricity. They have brought back a word from within, in accordance with the intuition of a renewed opening to the world.
