Festival du film documenTerre - Exposition Isis Olivier "Becs et serres"

Paintings and Prints. %AB Making marks on paper with a graphite pencil, charcoal, %E0 chalk—it’s like a caress; it’s touching life, touching being, slipping into the skin of an animal? %BB I. Olivier It was during the release of a young griffon vulture in Saint-Maurice-Navacelles, southeast of the Grands Causses du Larzac, that she drew her first bird of prey. In 2019, she was welcomed as an artist-in-residence at the Garrigues-Cévennes Wildlife Hospital, managed by Goupil Connections. There, she draws the animals being cared for, especially birds! By working from life, on the spot, without using a camera, she seeks to better sense and capture the essence, energy, and fragility of the animals. She creates her sketches in graphite pencil and charcoal on tissue paper, then combines several techniques. Opening reception on Monday, November 16, at 4:30 p.m.
