Painting Costa Rica 33

Art comes to Caravane.
Johanna Gaudeau and Caravane join forces to create a series of unique artworks.

For this collaboration with Caravane, Johanna Gaudeau reinterprets the house’s signature materials, cotton, linen, khadi and hand-printed fabrics, integrating them directly into the heart of her creations. Inspired by the wild landscapes discovered throughout her travels, she creates textured compositions combining sand, textiles and hand-crafted ceramics. Designed to interact naturally with living spaces, her works invite a deeply sensitive and sensory experience.

This artwork draws its inspiration from the softness of Costa Rica, the serenity of its landscapes, its peaceful way of life, the kindness of its people and their deep connection to the earth. Through the different rectangular forms structuring the composition, Johanna Gaudeau evokes the idea of ground, rootedness and raw earthly matter. The overall piece reveals a luminous, calm and deeply soothing atmosphere.

To create this artwork, the artist combined lime paint, a unique ceramic piece and Caravane fabrics. Her choice fell on the Arys curtain fabric, whose refined weave, delicacy and subtly golden tones naturally extend the light of the composition while preserving its softness and balance.
