About
Elliot STOREY is a visual artist whose work focuses on moving images.
His films explore the fine line between cinema and video art with the ambition to find other narrative forms, hence his interest in cine-dance as a new cinematographic form.
Currently, Elliot Storey is in post-production on his films CITY FARM (documentary feature film set on an urban farm in Paris) and SUCCESSIONS (Final film in a series of works including RECONCILIATION, CONFESSIONS and The LOVERS).
A sculptural practice interacts with the story and the performers in his films and are then exhibited with drawings and photographs generated in parallel with his film production.
His musical compositions become the binding emotional material of his work.
He is also the founder and architect of a new cultural space created in a water mill in the south of Paris.
