The can of 2020 sardines is illustrated by Stéphane Butet , painter and lover of the Bigouden region*!
"We find in this painting, I think, a Nordic atmosphere, perhaps, or Breton? an indefinable place, inhabited or deserted, between sea and land, nets or foam... There is something mineral, a kind of mycelium, organic matter in motion.
That happens here, especially in the walls, in the traces, in what is in the sea, on the coast, in what is emerging. I was talking about those tough things that can wander the open sea at low tide.
The black huts, they are meant to be reminiscent of all those fishermen's houses that we can find in the area, I set them in motion".
* The Bigoudenland (Breton Bro-Vigoudenn, French Pays Bigouden) is located west of Quimper in the southwest of the department of Finistère in Brittany between Plozévet, near the mouth of the Goyen at Audierne and the mouth of the Odet at Bénodet. Capital of the Bigoudenland is Pont-l'Abbé (English "the abbot's bridge") with the Bigouden Museum. The landscape is named after the pointed hoods (French coiffes), the traditional costume of the local women.
For this product, the sardines were hand-processed freshly caught, first deep-fried in sunflower oil and then canned in extra-virgin olive oil. On each tin you will also find the name of the fishing port, the name of the ship that caught the sardines and the year.
