Michel Dave (1941-2018) joined the La Pommeraie workshops when he was fifty years old.

The artist traced out words as you would draw them, repeating the same word or the same sentence in multiple columns on the page – some of them surrounded by a kind of bubble or dotted line. For the most part, Michel Dave created his work using colored acrylic markers. Although they follow the same creative framework, the works exhibited here, differ in terms of the technique he used: engraving.
