A fancy name for foundation Bisonte
Bisonte is italian for bison and sounds like “particular” or “special” in Dutch. It’s a metaphor for power, primal, beauty, connection (a herd animal), vulnerability and defenselessness (almost extinct because of human intervention). Overall a nice name for foundation Bisonte.
Here you can watch a bison slide show:
The herd of about 2,500 bison in this slide show is at Fermes des Bisons in Belgium. Sjef and Marie-José have been there many years ago to photograph and draw the bisons. Following that visit many bison paintings have been made by Marie-José. A passion that has now led to the ascription of Bisonte Foundation. Please also visit: marie-jose.biz
