Sitting on a sandy quartz hill between Luberon and Monts de
Vaucluse, Roussillon en Provence shines in the ochre light. Located in the
heart of the largest ochre bed in the world, Roussillon has been described as
one of the most beautiful village sin France. Here the maze of lanes and
squares are painted in rust colours, flamboyant reds and subtle lemon yellow,
the importance of colour and ochre vibrantly display the earth’s generosity.
Just outside the village are the former ochre quarries. The
land here is literally loaded with pigment. Hundreds of years ago the Romans
exploited this, mining the ochre and carrying it on donkeys to Marseille by
crossing Julien bridge and travelling along the Lourmarin valley, and from
there was sent out to traders in all four corners of the Empire. Then came the
decline and fall of the Empire. The quarries were deserted and centuries past
before a villager Jean-Etienne Astier rediscovered the rich ochre pigment in
the landscape. In 1780 he began to once again manufacture solid and beautifully
coloured paints from his red and yellow land.
Today the process of manufacturing the ore remains the same
and when my mum visited the ochre quarries a few years ago she brought me home
some of these beautiful pigments. For some time I left them untouched. They
seemed almost like a magical gift of nature; paint so near to its natural form
… lifted straight from the flesh of Mother Earth.
I have now begun to use the colours, yet each time I do it
is with a sense of reverence and awe. Admittedly I have only used them to do
the illustrative work for my book Grow Your Own Gorgeousness, but to me – in my
ongoing obsession with the gorgeousness – this seems like a worthy enough
project for the Roussillon gold dust. #theoreofmamajuju #luberon #roussillon
