Aurore Valade // Fotografa francese diplomata a l’École des Beaux-arts de Bordeaux e a l’École Nationale Supérieure de la Photographie d’Arles. Il suo lavoro sugli “Intérieurs” le ha valso numerosi premi (Prix du Photo Folio Review des Rencontres d’Arles 2017, Prix de la Fondation HSBC pour la photographie 2008, Prix Quinzaine photographique nantaise 2006, Bourse du Talent 2005, Prix du Musée d’art moderne de Collioure 2006, Prix Arca Swiss 2005). Aurore realizza le sue fotografie a partire da delle messe in scena, che sono delle autentiche azioni performative e di profonda indagine psicologica delle persone che abitano la scena.
Vive fra Arles, dove insegna fotografia, e Madrid, spirito nomade, ha vissuto a Marsiglia, Torino, Parigi, Città del Messico, in ogni luogo ha tratto ispirazione per delle serie fotografiche specifiche.
