A documentary series on contemporary artists
The “Audiovisual Foundation for Arts and Design” is developing a series of 12' documentary films on living artists, whose work and journey are emblematic of contemporary art in Europe.
The films of the “Terra Artistika” collection, shot in 4K, are intended, initially, for event screening, accompanying the events of the artists or arousing them. They allow us to enter the creative and very private world of artists.

Jephan de Villiers, Watchman at the edge of the world
We enter the unusual and poetic universe of Jephan de Villiers, whose work is totally impregnated, connected and created with what "nature has given him" as he himself expresses it in the film. After having lived on the edge of the Soignes forest in Brussels, which inspired him so much, he is now settled in the Gironde estuary, where he works, always in total symbiosis with nature. An ode to life!
