Hi, I’m Eliot, a young French artist.

I graduate from the “EMCA” academy in 2023 with a diploma in managing, conception and directing animation films.

After obtaining my qualifications as manager, conceptor and director of animation films in 2023 at the “EMCA” Academy in Angoulême. I am currently working in Europe to hone my skills.

One of my main focuses is to question the essence of what an object is, and how it relates to one or any environment.

I particularly like taking part in any projects that explores these notions.

I experiment with these subjects through the audiovisual industry, with stop motion animation and FX.

I find joy in working on teams, and on projects with different personalities.

I take great pleasure in designing simple little mechanisms which can impulses life into any inanimate object.

Different cultures inspire me. Being exposed to different ways of life, masks, puppets and artisanal practices helps me explore new branches of my art work, whether it's on a live performance, in the streets or in a theater designing puppets for specific sets.

Constantly inspired by my travels, new symbols, new languages or gestures, means I am always discovering new qualities in my professional work .

This in turn creates a constant renewal of perspective that I can then develop in different projects.

I prefer to work on projects that work in local circuits, with natural and sustainable materials like organic fabrics, wool, iron wool or repurposing things that would usually get thrown away and any of the above. :)
