Pierre-Luc Poujol was born in 1963 in Alès, in the Cévennes region of France.

In 1984, he began brilliant studies at the Bordeaux School of Applied Arts, graduating top of his class (first prize in drawing, first prize in perspective, first prize in sketching).

After dividing his time between France and the United States for several years, in 2018 he finally set up his studio in the South of France, near Montpellier.

Influenced by the peasant roots of his farmer grandfather and lulled by the spiritual environment of his pastor father, Pierre-Luc Poujol developed an early sensitivity to the world and nature around him.

Rewarded for his work and artistic commitment, he has won numerous prestigious awards. In particular, he won the international prize awarded by UNESCO for the bimillennium of the Nativity.

From March 23 to May 26, 2024, he presents “Arborescences”, his new monographic exhibition at the Musée Paul Valéry, featuring over 70 paintings and wood sculptures on the theme of trees and forests.

A committed artist, in spring 2022 Pierre-Luc Poujol will become the first ambassador of the French NGO Coeur de Forêt, for which he will lend his voice and his paintbrushes in support of the preservation of our biodiversity.
