do a closed test eyes here and
imagine yourself in your paradise the
yours the one you imagine for yourself
even what do you see
what do you mean what is this
that you now feel
eyes is this me ask you a question
how many of you in 7 rooms
can say that they saw beauty
in their steps struck off how many of
you can say that it was beautiful
obviously now another question
how many of you can say that they
have seen heard felt or even felt
one or more elements of nature
it can be anything a waterfall
a breeze on the skin a big tree ok
keep that in mind we will come back more
late in Polynesia unlike
other places in the world a little bit more
urbanized we all have a history more
or less intimate with nature you
definitely have the bush today
I propose to introduce you to
I grew up on the island of Moorea
an island that still remains today
very wild
at the time my mother told me that the
roads were not even even
it was paved the coral soda
I am often asked what was done
my young years of childhood
these pictures to give you a little idea
dabble or swim in the lagoon during
hours pick up seashells on
the beach pick flowers dance I
do not know if that’s how at all
children of Polynesia but in any case
my childhood was that this image is
a good summary of what I had around
from me to the everyday of the great valleys
of the big mountains of the lagoon
layers and raising alone is to cut the
breath
really i was spoiled for a very
a long time until very late we had
no television at home and that I can
to say that it’s a thing about me
allowed me to not be influenced by
the conception of beauty imposed by
the consumer society
if you know a little dead and you
will also be that there is still
very rare today to see at the edge of
the road billboards we
really I can say that growing up
there I created a conception of
the beauty
really personal is in truth 100%
inspired by nature
it’ll explain to you there you go
surely thought about it ok vote we think about
these tall slender women on the
podiums in lingerie you can forget
right now because it’s not
all that I ‘m referring to
today for me beauty is
two things
harmony and balance is in fact center
surprise we realize that harmony
and balance
it is also two characteristic
primordial nature ecosystems
in a forest for example you go
have the little bird that is going to have
need to nest and to make
his nest
then we will be there and will give him a
habitat but here we will also need
scatter and seeds in the forest
is not it so loiseau will take this
role he’s going to eat seeds he was worth
dispersed then in the forest but these
small seeds they need to
push
they all have fertile soil and for
do this all the plants of nature
will lose their leaves that small to
little wind has broken down and will come
feed the soil
the river will bring a micro climate
fresh and nice for all these
plants or these plants can grow
and all these birds and animals
can survive simply you
see everything is perfectly orchestrated
is not everything is balanced everything is
harmonious and what is beautiful in
these conditions is that life is
then follows whether this definition of the
beauty on the scale a little bit macro
you still seem a little fuzzy I you
propose to look at this selection
of image that are all the images of
things of nature you will be able to
maybe recognize leaves from
bark flowers the eye of a reptile
the tentacles of a pool for example and
there you see color textures
shapes and maybe even smells
which are all perfectly balanced
and harmonious harmony I did not choose
this theme for nothing harmony this is a
term that we use very often when
we describe the music a sound a voice is
in fact all this in scientific terms
what is it all about?
vibration waves
is not it for me the beauty the true
beautiful is something that emanates from it
emanates something so strong and
it makes us want are inspired and 50
and 100 years surrounded
my passion growing up in moorea and
also with the experiences I had
in my young life
it became the pursuit of beauty
surround myself with the beautiful all the time the most
possible and in fact therefore it is
a little became the passion of nature
then more than the word passion is the
term hurts that I would like to introduce
for you today hurts it’s a
English word which in France is the most or
less bliss
but I thought the word slips phone
is so good that we will keep it
so bliss hockey is the state of
supreme happiness and that’s a definition
almost spiritual actually because
that’s the term we’re referring to
when we refer to happiness
you feel in paradise it tells you
Something
so my wheat on me as I tell you
said it became little by little
pursue the quest for this beauty
at 16 I have the chance to travel in
equator for a day we have
could we tell us how to visit the
Amazon rainforest we went
really at the forest border
Amazonian a bit mythical 1
it was so beautiful I was filled
I was under the spell and yet there
was something that hit the mark
the tour guide told us not far
from there to only a few kilometers
there are experts and acres of
virgin forest they are being
massacred they are being cut
all this why for reasons
economic or industrial reasons
this was my personal click
This is really where I thought that
this beauty of nature that I took
for granted in my little bubble at
Montreal with all these beautiful sunsets
sun and its beautiful lagoons and beautiful
mountains but in fact it was much more
fragile than we could imagine
I started studying in
sustainable development in ecology
not just for a useful reason that
were to protect nature and because
that I wanted to protect and promote this
we have more beautiful on this
earth is also I must confess a little
little because I have an obsession for
the gardens an obsession and I would like
create in my life what I call
magical gardens it’s places that
are so beautiful and ecological
that they inspire the man to pursue
his own wheat and to change for the
better
this quest a little insane bo she
took me far enough
professionally at least for my
young age I think I still
managed to bring a little something
but that’s really how far I am
so geographically speaking in Morocco
I camped in the middle of the dunes of
sand why because I dreamed of
see a sunrise in the desert
of the sahara
when I lived in Brazil it happened to me
sometimes to get up in the middle of
the night she had a lot of
canvases to go to bathe in this
black completely frozen why because
that we could see the reflection of
stars in the black lake and I had
the impression of bathing in the sky
star
a bit more funny story this
times to zion in the united states where I forced
my poor sister who in the room
today to make an adventure of
wild camping with rain the wind
quite dubious camping neighbors and
all for what for
because I wanted to ride on this
mountain to celebrate my 21st
anniversary
and that’s my sister’s head at
wake up in everyday life the
hurts for me is for example design
and my little garden my little garden
magic with my berries but
also vegetables that’s my hurts me
also wounded repetitive alarms
Tahitian every night and see my
friends and laugh and dance and sing
together in harmony make costumes
traditional with leaves of
bark flowers that come from the
nature he would do well to tell you
today is the story of my
hurts and in fact if I rely on the number
of hands that got up in the room
just now when I asked you
how many people have seen beauty
or nature in their paradise
chances are your wheat is at
less a little bit related to that
think about it
but instead of convincing you that the
nature or beauty will make you the most
great good in your life even though I
am persuaded what I would like you
to say it’s pursue your own
simply slip at all costs at this
that will take you very far I’m doing
part of these people who are
convinced that we all have in our lives
a mission to accomplish we have a role to
play in this great ecosystem and that to
Really I do not really invent you
remember the example of the forest and
seeds the bird the tree the soil them
roots the river
they all have a role to play and not
remove only one of these elements and your
ecosystem collapses literally
so why are we human beings
you ‘d think you’re so different
final we are the animals in a big
ecosystem no we all have a nature is
humble and this dispute me for example
i will love agriculture and someone
going can be loved fishing
I will love working outdoors and
someone may be preferred
work in front of a computer
at home I prefer warm climates
and someone will prefer the climates
cold is normal nature is made
as it is extremely diverse and the
opposite but it would really be
annoying so we’re all gone
involved in this large ecosystem and if
in fact our responsibility to follow
his own blaise because that’s the one
there that will take us on the right path
so I know the question you’re going
ask me now is how is this
we know what’s wrong with how
do I know what my mission is
the simplest answer is we
do not know how it feels but it’s a
abstract theory and I do not prefer us
to confuse with that earlier I prefer
to share – from my experience
personal how is it that I
feel my own hurts all
I just feel like I have
palpitations here at the level of the
chest
a bit like right now I have some
palpitations but it’s a bit like
adrenaline a little bit like
the excitement and that’s when I feel
I have an idea and I feel that and I
know that it’s exactly in this
way I’ll go no matter what
she will take me
I know it’s the right way I see
a lot of young people today who are
quite idle his few of the life we
even offers them time how is this
we could blame them
me for example when I got my bac
gave me two science options po or
a high school of business and me this to
what I thought was ok and my garden
magic then actually worse than
young idlers it’s a lot
many many adults I see
just satisfied with the opinions they built
but just a little bored also they
have left out their hurts because
it’s not important
they are facing a
adult life is not it actually that’s
that we also pass on to our students
our students to our children and our young people
it’s boredom
no it’s something I can you
to say is that life is good too
wonderful and filled with things for
we have time to be bored
you have to be curious and hurt him
go tell me yes but it’s good you’re going
traveling is good you did if you have
Do it
the wounded in the little things of the
life it’s like her on her couch a
Sunday night all alone and take a
crazy laughing at his truth his TV series
it’s like dancing in your
cooked
it is now cook pasta
or when you take a small
seed put it in the ground and dia ba
maybe she’s going to scare
that she will give flowers one day
laughs slow thinking and pass my wheat
she is yours
thank you
[Applause]
