Like the artistic impetus that has enriched the relationship between ancient Celtic tradition and modernism in the applied and decorative arts, Pevarzek now brings together creative people wishing to enhance Breton themes in their various fields: architecture, painting, sculpture, photography, graphic design, furniture design, textile design, etc. Pevarzek aims to reflect the image of a contemporary Brittany that is dynamic, tolerant and open to other cultures. Pevarzek invites you to discover creations that echo the Seiz Breur, illustrating a diversity of styles and a shared desire to promote Brittany, its heritage and know-how, while renewing its creative power in a modern way. For Ar Seiz Avel, the collective created two screens, Paravel koad sav and Paravel giaz mor, elements that are both decorative and utilitarian, in keeping with the play of porosity in Breton domestic space. In addition, they are inspired by the work on the boundaries between places for entertaining and places of intimacy in traditional Breton housing, notably through the strong presence of the enclosed bed with sliding wall or veil/canopy/curtain, allowing the individual to escape the glare of the family group, even though he or she is at the heart of the common room.
