ASTRES ET DÉSASTRES BY OLIVIER FOUCHARD

Anthropocenes, magic mountains, earthquakes... Cosmic events in the multiverse and a certain vision that we have of the universe, of Gaia (Earth), of the Moon in the style of Méliès, of the solar system, of stars, of fireballs during stormy weather, of Betelgeuse exploding, and of eruptions on a sacred mountain...

"Planets and Exoplanets", "Nebulae" and other "Galaxies" and "Stars" painted through stencils directly onto the film strip, itself submitted to various chemical treatments. The filmmaker takes on the role of an active, contemplative thinker who delivers a reflection on space-time...

Olivier Fouchard (Troyes, 1969) calls himself a "weaver", but he is also a painter, filmmaker, and video artist. In a relentless artistic exploration, his cinematographic work revolves around the articulation between ethical rigor and unbridled formal freedom.
