Francoise Larouge | on Tumblr (France)

Born in Tours, France, Françoise Larouge has studied in the history of art at L’Ecole du Louvre and in the history of film at La Cinémathèque Française in Paris. Her first artwork was focused on painting, but quickly she began to work on short film wrinting histories, casting actors, being script for a short story. While she was developping her art skills, she worked for the CGT (one of the most important french worker union) and other places. She had a fresh start with photography and collages after a few years of wandering and has graduated in 2006 in plastic expression at Ecole Duperré. For Françoise, collages and photographies are two best way to express herself. By the photograph, she works on the memory and the fidelity. With the collage, all the mixes become possible: mental portraits, humour or lightness. Please visit artist’s website for more photography work or follow her Tumblr for more collages.
