Pierre-Marie Huet, alias PMH, well-known artist in the Redon region, has just opened a small ephemeral gallery-boutique (a “pop-up store” in English), the “Doodle Shop”, at number 20, in the Grande-Rue, precisely in the old delicatessen “Chez Marie-Louise”. PMH welcomes visitors there during the end-of-year holiday period, until Tuesday December 31.

“A “pop-up” is a first of its kind in Redon, it seems to me, and a first for me too. I'm trying the formula which could then perhaps give ideas to others…”underlines the artist who has made patterns and shapes, in bright colors, which intersect and overlap, his trademark.

His Art is called “doodle” (scribbling or doodling in good French), a drawing which “mixes concentration and letting go”. For six years, the self-taught artist has devoted himself entirely to these unconsciously penciled lines, after having been a history-geography teacher at Saint-Sauveur high school for 21 years.

The gallery-boutique is open every day. PMH presents its creations there, namely “some original works, such as canvases, skateboards, but above all reproductions (serigraphs, lithographs, digigraphs, etc.) and also, for the first time, derivative products, such as clothing (tee- shirts, sweatshirts), mugs, stickers, postcards and even a coloring book,” announces the artist from Redon. “There is something for all budgets”adds Geoffroy Michel, the PMH agent.

The artist also plans to host six workshops to learn how to make “doodle” in his own way. They are all full.

Pierre-Marie Huet sees this “pop-up store” opening as “a test, to see if you like it”. He even invites communities to take up the concept. “They could own a commercial unit in the city center, reserved for local artists. They would take turns there, presenting and selling their works. »

“Doodle shop”, at number 20, Grande-Rue, in Redon. Open until December 31, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
