Biography
Former student of the École Boulle and the decorative arts, Jean-Louis Dhuit was a set designer at ORTF before settling in Étagnon, near Ambert (Puy-de-Dôme). Under the name Kesta, he develops a personal body of work where geometric and optical abstraction plays a central role, alongside gestural series, landscapes and figures. Regular exhibitions in the Livradois.
