These galleries, dug into the rock and once used to extract the castle&#8217;s stones, become the stage for a subtle interplay of light and shadow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull is-style-fond-blanc-gris\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignwide are-vertically-aligned-bottom is-style-espace-60-px is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:30%\">\n<p class=\"is-style-sur-titre-page\">Michel Verjux<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-36-px-font-size\"><strong>A luminous installation in the heart of the underground<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With his projections of white light, Verjux does not seek to add an external element, but to reveal the space itself. It highlights the rough texture of the walls and underlines the structure of the space, transforming the gallery into a work of art in itself. True to his approach, here he questions the way light shapes our perception and invites us to see our surroundings differently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-bottom is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:70%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full is-style-img-responsive\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines.jpg\" alt=\"Michel Verjux: revealing space through light\" class=\"wp-image-575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-1350x900.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-900x600.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"height:70px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover alignwide\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-noir-background-color has-background-dim\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-575\" alt=\"Michel Verjux : r\u00e9v\u00e9ler l\u2019espace par la lumi\u00e8re\" src=\"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines.jpg\" style=\"object-position:32% 73%\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" data-object-position=\"32% 73%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-1350x900.jpg 1350w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Galeries-souterraines-900x600.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading alignwide has-text-align-left has-64-px-font-size\">Discover the<br\/>page dedicated to the artist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons alignwide is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/artist\/michel-verjux\/\">See the artist<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In March 2011, artist Michel Verjux took over the underground galleries of the Donjon de Vez with a minimalist light [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":576,"template":"","class_list":["post-1212","oeuvre","type-oeuvre","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oeuvre\/1212","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oeuvre"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/oeuvre"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumental-valois.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1212"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
