CHRISTMAS EXHIBITION - LAOS
Jean-Marc's next exhibition will take place at
the Amantaka in Luang Prabang, the latest addition
to the prestigious Aman Resorts network.
The vernissage is scheduled on 15 December,
with the show lasting until end of February.
With previous shows at Phuket's Amanpuri
and Java's Amanjiwo, the artist is familiar
with the resort's spiritual elegance and cool vibe.
12 canvases for an intimate gathering, to celebrate
the city's profound Buddhist faith . The soul of Asia.
MOVING TO LAOS
At the end of September, Jean-Marc and his entourage will leave Phuket and move to Luang Prabang, in Laos. For the next 2 years, the magic , mystic and somnolent city in the mist will be home. Phuket has been good enough. Moving from the Pearl of the Andaman to the Jewel of Indochina is just a state of mind.The Mekong River has white sandy beaches and further more there are no import duties on red wine. Serious matters...
This is a place where time is not of the essence,
where things are happening and exciting creative
opportunities abound. Green eco days ahead.

DARJEELING ORPHANAGE
Our close friend in London, Sharan Patel, is the trustee of a charity based in Darjeeling, that supports various projects including an orphanage which is run by an amazing Buddhist monk. One hundred children are affected and the old dilapidated and overcrowded building needs to be replaced. Sponsors are being sought right now for this project, and in order to thank the donors, we gave a painting to this charity which will be sold and used to print a limited series of signed prints to be given as a gift to the generous contributors.
A small gesture but a big noble cause.
Education is the key. Giving is healthy.
It keeps you young.
Check out what they do.
