Eric Schumacher
This short documentary is a portrait of the artist Eric Schumacher, laureate of Prix Grand Ducal 2021.
We tried to express Eric’s high humility and sense of humour with a joking and “meme-ish” aesthetic along this contemporary art video. We found a similarly off-balance approach with the art world in his creative work, which is why we chose to use this tone to paint his portrait.
