Shaping the material and the sound
#2 – June 21, 2025
First echoes
Watch - Listen - Feel
From May 30 to June 8, the exhibition “Art and Sensoriality” was held at the Casino Grand Cercle in Aix-les-Bains (73), organized by Art-bonplan with the presence of artists Manu Cardoso, Sohen, Hana.M, and Chal.
Even today, I still feel the resonances of everything that was experienced there. Thank you to all those who came to see and listen to CHAL's painting for the first time. And to those who came back.
Sometimes several times, to prolong the experience. To feel this journey to the heart of painting, which resonates within. These ten days were of rare intensity for me. Unforgettable encounters, heavy silences, shaken gazes. The paintings shone with a thousand lights! They resonated in every heart. And I, deeply moved, realized the power of this connection.
Seeing a child immersed in a canvas, eyes shining, living an inner journey… it’s magical.
I would like to especially thank Manu Cardoso, a luminous artist and a woman with a heart of gold, who carried this exhibition with rare generosity and offered us an exceptionally high-quality setting.
A big thank you also to Adrien Cortes, who graciously accepted to participate in the exhibition by coming to sign his latest novel, L’Embellie du souffle. A beautiful work, carried by poetic writing, in which we also discover a passage where the protagonist experiences, for the first time, what it is like to see and listen to CHAL’s painting…
The painting spoke. And for the first time, it was heard!
CHAL – Let us keep listening to what vibrates within us.

EXHIBITION IN VENICE
A meaningful international debut
It all started with a meeting. One of those encounters life offers when your intention is clear and your commitment is total.
A year ago, I made this commitment to myself: to live fully from my art, to share it without filter, to believe in the power of creation and the magic of the universe. So what a feeling of gratitude to now be experiencing this international exhibition of my sound paintings. And symbolically, for it to take place in Venice is far from insignificant for me.
Because Venice is more than a backdrop.
It’s a cradle of Art — but also, my mother was born near this mythical city. This country saw me grow up. So sharing my art here, today, is pure joy!
There are no coincidences. Only appointments with ourselves.
In just a few weeks, three exhibitions have come together: Venice, Aix-les-Bains, and a salon in preparation in Paris at the end of the year. What a joy it is to experience these moments! It’s a chance to invite a new audience to listen to my paintings. To live that rare moment where painting becomes vibration, where a canvas takes you deep into your own interiority.
"Gravity" will be exhibited for the first time outside of France. This symbolic moment deeply moves me. I’m not here to show a painting. I’m here to offer an experience.
I deeply believe that art can be a portal.
A passage to something greater.
My works speak of a mystery. That of our origin. That of a universe where everything is vibration. Where love underlies all things.
And this time, the portal will open in Venice, from June 14 to 22, 2025, at the Scuola Grande di San Teodoro!
