Soizic Gourvil and Filip Forgeau with their two goats, real mascots of their new life, who gave the name to their haven of peace at La Bonnelière in Clessé. The artists Soizic Gourvil and Filip Forgeau settled in La Bonnelière two years ago with the desire to share their passion for theater with their neighbors. “We have moved a lot to work abroad, Latin America, Africa, Eastern Europe… We wanted change but also the desire to create something locally,” adds Soizic Gourvil. Culture and agriculture Three donkeys, two horses, two goats but also chickens and cats are now an integral part of their daily lives. "We recently opened a bed and breakfast, where we make it a point of honor to serve fresh and homemade products: bread, yogurt, jams, compotes, eggs ..." Their great project, which they hope see the light of day in 2021, is the installation of a yurt on their 7,000 m² of land. “We want to get closer to people with this project. I worked for 12 years in a theater and noticed that people are far removed from the culture. We have so locked up art within a framework… We do not know the rural agricultural environment at all, but we are driven by mutual sharing. We have so much to learn from each other, ”concludes Filip Forgeau.
