Aurore BAGARRY, born 1982
French photographer and video artist, born in 1982 in Le Mans. For five years, she surveyed the coasts of the English Channel, photographing the cliffs and rocks of northern France and southern England.
From Finistère to Pas-de-Calais, then across the sea from Eastbourne to Cape Lizard in Cornwall, she produced what appears to be a survey of the different geological formations to be found along the Channel coast: pink granite, green shale, white chalk cliffs, red siliceous rocks. The colored rocks occupy all the space in the image, to the point of making the notion of scale
of scale, becoming both sculptures and fascinating backdrops.
Aurore Bagarry graduated from the Ecole Nationale de la Photographie d'Arles in 2008, and joins Ar Seiz Avel for its stimulating and innovative approach to promoting and supporting artists. Her work focuses on notions of time and landscape, using a large-format view camera. Arriving in Brittany in 2016, her work has taken on new momentum, through encounters with local art professionals and the production of books and exhibitions. Ar Seiz Avel resonates with her artistic preoccupations with nature and the living. For this sale, she is offering five works, including Ile Renote, Trégastel, a major work for its large format and soft tones. It is emblematic of her artistic approach to the intersection of photography and geology. The sale project, Ar Seiz Avel, offers an ideal opportunity to showcase this work, particularly in Rennes, where Mathurin Méheut and Yvonne Jean Haffen
a decorative cycle in the former Rennes Geological Institute: a celebration of Science and the Earth in Brittany.
