Art galleries Quimper

Textile creation is a little known discipline in the history of Breton industry and crafts. Embroidery was a marker of wealth throughout Breton society. Pascal Jaouen is the major actor of the revival of this art. He revisits the codes with audacity to propose sumptuous and delicate creations. The school he created is still alive after its transmission in 2021. It hosts regularly renewed exhibitions, as well as a very beautiful haberdashery.
