Aurélien: bénévole manuel aguerri

Il y a de ces personnes qu'il nous arrive de regarder avec admiration, d'envier en silence, surtout quand leur talent tient bien plus pour nous du super-pouvoir ou d'une présupposition d'Organisme Génétiquement Modifié que d'une quelconque capacité innée... pour moi, ces êtres aussi étranges que fascinants sont: LES MANUELS.
 
Aurélien Maury fait partie de cette gamme d'êtres capables de vous dire sans crier gare: "Tu peux me passer la cornière de 40 et la scie égoïne, pi fais attention tu marches sur mon rabot!" et sans sourcilier, alors que vous avez l'impression de vous retrouver entre la vie et la mort face à une telle agression incompréhensible (est-ce que c'est une menace? Mais d'où lui vient donc cette connaissance des langues étrangères?).
 
Aurélien est menuisier ébéniste, depuis plus de 10 ans, et édifie des charpentes de bateaux comme il sculpte minutieusement des petits morceaux de bois ramassés au grès de ses voyages, et, Charentais de France, s'extasie de façon déconcertante devant un morceau de bûche d'érable.
 
Aurélien, son rabot, ses scies et ses planchers en érable ont tous rejoint Exeko l'année passée à la naissance de idAction Mobile, qui n'était alors qu'une petite camionnette commune dépourvue d’apparats et qui portait maladroitement ses livres, cahiers et autres crayons de couleurs dans des petites caisses virevoltant à chaque virage du centre ville.
Qu'à cela ne tienne, c'est un plancher, des coffres, des étagères pour une bibliothèque qu'Aurélien a découpé, sablé, monté et ainsi habiller notre caravane pour l'hiver.

Un menuisier ébéniste ça sert aussi sous le soleil d'été: et c'est un avantage indéniable à avoir sous la main pour un événement de levée de fonds où l'on doit fabriquer son propre bateau, lorsque que toute scie droit devant il taille les ailes de notre planche de surf à la Course des Petits Bateaux.

Aurélien met aussi son talent manuel à profit lorsque qu'il revêt son habit de Dj Noi-J dont les mixes Drum n'bass et Electroswing font rougir les dancefloors les plus timides de France et du Québec. 

 

Alors des mains qui façonnent le bois et la musique, nous on dit oui ! Et merci !
