Moved by the work by the work of Seiz Breur and the music of Emglev, they dream of works imbued with Brittany, not to mimic it or to please, but of a present-day Brittany, deeply lived, in response to the redundancy and lack of renewal in so-called "Breton" products. Eon Avel is a quest for this damaged heritage, whose forms and meanings they are trying to grasp. For them, the spirituality that once comforted their ancestors has not been passed on, and through art they find a way to approach it. Denez and Breuuenn work with images, using a variety of techniques: wood, linoleum and metal engraving metal, painting, sculpture and lettering. They tackle themes of reverie, introspection, nature, the Breton imagination and the stories of the ancients, which they try to modernize and in which they find themselves. in which they find themselves. Their creations perpetuate the taste for motif and symbolism of ancient embroiderers and cabinet-makers, the forms of sacred architecture, the country's thousand-year-old history and content with the force of the elements. The mystique of the landscapes in which they live out their adventures also infuses their work, as does the spiritual atmosphere emanating from the many places and shrines. Following on from the collective work of the Seiz Breur, they dream of a general, original and profound artistic renewal that would be part of both an artistic quest for beauty and a search for oneself as a baker. as Breton men and women. For them, the Ar Seiz Avel event represents the concrete expression of what this could all be about, and enables them to share their distinctive universe with a wider public.
