The writer, a regular at “Book Fairs”, notably in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, and other places in France, has been based in Plaisance du Gers for several months… The designer Emmanuel Guibert celebrated there shortly under the Dome of the Academy of Fine Arts, and creator of the series Ariel, whose books have been found for years at Laurent Lavedan’s Maison de la Presse on the Place de l’Église de Plaisance, would not deny the words that Dominique Sorrentino-Florentz told us…
In addition to the sensitive and enthusiastic dialogue that Emmanuel Guibert and Dominique Sorrentino-Florentz are both capable of establishing with children, a common trait still connects them to this Gers village. : the great organ and their mutual friendships with the creators of the Plaisance organ factory!
Dominique Sorrentino-Florentz expresses himself as follows:
“My text and my illustrations are the result of research, of a personal approach to the image and the environment.
As a special educator, I often mixed art with the activities I carried out with children or adults. I have always considered art to be an exceptional means of communication because it allows you to express and transmit a message.
Children have always possessed extraordinary creative abilities.
Unfortunately, also experiencing the accelerating pace of modern life, they no longer imagine, they no longer invent.
Should we abandon them to this reality?
Personally, I refuse it. This is why my books offer a way to awaken observation, imagination and creation, whether pictorial or technical.
This approach should attract the child towards an artistic path and make him discover inner satisfaction.
The world of Noïs that I imagined allows the opening of a dialogue with the child, inviting him to play with the text and the image to put into practice “his” solutions for protecting nature”.
