Camille Lorenzetti and Abdelfettah Seffar are pleased to welcome you at Riad Alkantara.
Of Western origins but immersed in the Oriental culture from birth, Camille travelled much when she was a child. She developed a keen interest for unknown and faraway lands. She learned the art of theatre play and dancing and studied occupational therapy and art therapy. Camille also enjoys the arts of sculpture, painting and writing and has studied Yoga, relaxation massages and energy therapy.
Born in Persia, Abdelfettah has lived ten years in different Western countries where he studied architecture, literature and philosophy. Heir to a lineage of master plasterers, he sculpts stucco with graceful curves and metaphysical geometrical themes. He views himself as a tradesman dedicated to the Mind, working and renovating art, seeking to reveal the fragile beauty of silence turned into material beauty.
Both have fallen in love with Fez and are dedicated to celebrating its spirit and wish to contribute, with the Riad and the cultural and artistic events it hosts, to rekindle some of the citadel's past splendour.
