THOMAS TRICHET RESIDENCY LOCATION : MEXICO
Thomas joined the Animated Film department of the École des Arts Décoratifs in 2017 after completing his initial artistic training at the École nationale supérieure des arts appliqués et des métiers d’art. His approach to filmmaking, animation and live action brings together many genres and styles.
Mexico was an inspiring destination. The landscapes, the vegetation, the light, but also the clothing styles are all elements permeating the history of cinema and nourishing my imagination and my work. I worked mainly from photographs, capturing the scenes unfolding in front of me – which would become my final illustrations – with my phone.”
SALOMÉ PEREZ RESIDENCY LOCATION : FRANCE
Salomé is a visual artist and illustrator whose work captures memories and sensations by combining drawing, ceramics, engraving and physical installations. She graduated from the École des Arts Décoratifs after studying printed images.
I wanted to highlight the singularities of each Brand Home with each image – whether that was the team spirit in the heart of the Maison Lillet cellar, the diversity of landscapes of the Embiez Island, the thousands of shades of yellow at the MX in Marseille, or the dance of Ricard bottles in the Arnavaux factory.”
MATHILDE LEROY RESIDENCY LOCATION : INDIA
Mathilde graduated from the École des Arts Décoratifs after specialising in printed images. She uses saturated tones and vibrant colours to tell stories, bringing together sketches and photography with mental images, notes and writing.
I had the chance to meet many people from very diverse backgrounds, and the opportunity to attend brand events, participate in cultural immersions, discover local factories and distilleries, and visit cities, megacities, and more rural areas. I thought it would be interesting to focus on India’s diversity, plurality, and historically rich density – a dynamic I also felt within Pernod Ricard.”
