Château
Capitoul is delighted to present CAELO, the new exhibition by Jane Heyes, an
artist who has been based in Narbonne for over 25 years.
CAELO, from
the Latin meaning “towards the sky, to lift up, celestial vault”, evokes the
freedom of birds and that feeling of space that arises when one looks upwards.
This is
precisely the vitality Jane brings to her work: vibrant compositions where
colour and light guide the eye, opening up new horizons.
Trained in photography, graphic design, illustration and painting, Jane celebrates the landscapes, architecture and light of our coastline as well as the surrounding villages and towns, including Narbonne.
For CAELO,
she has cast a sensitive eye over the life of our three estates: Château
Capitoul, Les Carrasses and St Pierre de Serjac.
From
viewpoints, gardens and interiors, she has created a body of new works that
seeks to capture the essence of these unique places: tranquillity, elegance and
the joy of life.

About the
artist
Jane Heyes
runs L’Étoile d’Art, her gallery-studio in the heart of Narbonne. Her prints,
paintings and photographs are exhibited there, reflecting her versatility as an
artist.
Her
painting style often depicts local places and people – and sometimes even her
dog.
Her prints
take on a more graphic approach, with bold colour fields and a keen eye for
detail. Her work is distinguished by a love of colour and design, as well as
warmth and humour.
