Laure Subreville

Biography:

Laure Subreville is a visual artist who lives and works in Bordeaux, France. Graduated from the Fine Arts of Bordeaux in 2017, Laure Subreville spent a year at the Pavilion, an international creation residency in Bordeaux in 2018. She worked with Ange Leccia and developped a unique project around a first collective of men practicing wrestling. Laure Subreville then continued her work within the framework of two residences in France. The "artist in business" program enabled her to shoot in a sharpening workshop, Durousseau Outils Coupants, in Cenon and to produce the film Jean-Baptiste. She joined the traveling residence <3 with her Plein air project and exhibited her work at Confort Moderne in Poitiers, at LACS & LaVitrine in Limoges and at La Fabrique POLA in Bordeaux. Social, ethnological and political issues have become major in the artist's videos and today form the basis of her work. She's currently pursuing her plastic and video research around various projects. Fortuna, a fictional short film is being edited on the Vassivière islands with the help of the CIAP and with private partners at the Moulin de Constance in Charente-Maritime. The island universe fully inhabits the artist's work. This project is supported by the Support for Artists Facing the Crisis grant from the FRAC Nouvelle-Aquitaine MECA. Finally, a large-scale project in French Guiana will be produced in December 2021 with a new documentary Camopi One, centered around musical and ethnological issues with the Wayãpi community in the village of Camopi. This project is in partnership with the Ensemble Variances (contemporary music), Thierry Pécou (composer), the Amazonian Park, Massala production and the ethnomusicologist Jean-Michel Beaudet.
