Luis Tamani is a Peruvian born artist who learned to paint in the jungles of the Amazon.  His work connects us visually to the experience of living a life in harmony with Mother Earth.  He is an internationally collected painter, and we are fortunate to have three of his pieces with us all the way from the south of France where he currently resides. 

BIO:
1983. Pucallpa, Peru. Luis arrives on Earth. He grows up on the Ucayalli river's side with the rhythm of the seasons and the experiences that life brings him. He spent childhood amazed by the beauty of nature, by its sensitivity and perfection. Since he was very young, Luis used to get up at dawn to accompany his father to the river.  He was a boat builder, a dugout canoe builder to be exact. Boats were the subject of his first paintings. What a performance to arrange the woods so perfectly that just a little bit of tar was enough to make the pirogue unsinkable. 

In 2002, Luis entered the Eduardo Meza Saravia School of Art in his hometown, Pucallpa.  For five years, he received academic training. At the end of this cycle, Luis dedicated his plastic research to abstract art, merging forms, and textures. When he connected to the sacred medicine of his ancestors, he began to paint his own visions, in a magical and multi-dimensional style.

Today through his art, Luis transmits a message of communion between the human being and earth.  Whether it is through the four elements, stones, plants, trees, or animals, nature offers us unlimited teaching.  Luis is always fascinated by the deep relationship that a human being can develop with all of these worlds. Luis transmits his visions and perceptions with the clear intention to spread his love and gratitude for life and for the earth that makes this experience possible.
