ABOUT

LOREN PASQUIER

Bonjour! I'm Loren. I grew up and studied in France but have spent the majority of the last decade exploring the globe and living in Aotearoa New Zealand.

I care about creating work that is accessible, and that people can relate to and be moved by. I studied Art & Design in Lyon (La Martinière Diderot) and Paris (École Duperré) and then anthropology at Strasbourg University.

I believe art can help bridge the gap between different cultures and communities. So I find ways to do that, on my scale. I love storytelling, with sound, photography, video, and web, and I use it to bring people together.
