Inside Yamou’s workshop

Meeting with painter Yamou, who translates the poetry of the living onto canvas. He welcomes us in Tahanaout, where he built his studio some fifteen years ago. This small, verdant town, just a few kilometers from Marrakech, is, the artist tells us, “in harmony with [his] work.” #DrivenByArt – in partnership with Audi.
