Description
With the help of students from the Greater Besançon area, artists Laura Tisserand and Alice Jouan spent a week creating cheerful accessories and costumes inspired by birds.

Biographie
Born somewhere in the hills of Besançon in 1998, she has since had the opportunity to flourish in the visual arts as an image maker, wearing the many hats that this profession allows her to wear: illustrator, graphic designer, visual artist and mediator.
Through her role as an image maker, she seeks to highlight what she considers precious: life, in both its social and natural aspects.
She loves plants, animals, humans, mountains, the sky, rivers and forests. She strive to embody a magical and playful perspective in her artistic universe. Bringing magic back
to places where we see less of it is fundamental to her: she finds it a means of fighting for the preservation of the imagination, as a tool committed to opening up the possibilities of a socially just future that is closer to the environment.
