Beau Edouard
Born in 1982 in Nevers. Lives and works in Paris.
ENSP 2011 He practices documentary photography, questioning the human condition, migratory flows and their causes. From the Sangatte refugee camp in 2002 to Mosul in 2007, he creates still images and videos caught during encounters and events. He then allows the images to settle during a period in which he analyses this chaotic system in order to question our relationship with the Other, the media and the world, at the crossroads of geopolitical analysis, humanitarian commitment and poetic perception. Searching for Hassan received the French Competition First Film Prize at FIDMarseille and the Jury’s Film Long Award at the 7th Al Jazeera International Documentary Film Festival in Doha, Qatar, in 2010. Having himself escaped the explosion of an IED during his trip to Mosul in 2011, he worked on post-traumatic stress suffered by American veterans in Afghanistan and Iraq during an exchange programme with the International Center of Photography in New York City.
