Cyrille de Vignemont (Danakil)

Artist, photographer and director Cyrille de Vignemont fell into the world of contemporary art with his first show at the Palais de Tokyo in 2004. French Art Is Not Dead named him one of ten young artists of French Art’s new guard. His work has been exhibited at the MoCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) in Shanghai and Melbourne and he is often invited to biennials and different exhibitions.
His aesthetic and sensibility then seduced the world of music and he started directing music videos including Milk Teeth for Mohini Geisweiller and Antibodies for Poni Hoax winning multiple awards at the Saatchi&Saatchi Showcase and Best New Director recognition at the Antville Awards.
He embraced his advertizing career directing exemplary campaigns for Converse, Chanel, Isabel Marant and Amnesty International.
Cyrille creates what he calls “sensorial narratives.”. Atmospheric films with a sensual narrative of the body’s fragility and a deep connection to natural elements, always bathed in sunlight.
