"The artivist (artist + activist) uses their artistic talents to fight and struggle against injustice and oppression. The artivist merges commitment to freedom and justice with the pen, the lens, the brush, the voice, the body, and the imagination. The artivist knows that to make an observation is to have an obligation." M.K Asante

Testimonials
"Éloïse was very comforting to work with. She communicates clearly and consistently when we were organising the photoshoot. Then the actual day was a lot of fun, they really captured who I am as a non-binary person." Nell Basley, Poet
"I worked with Éloïse in her capacity as a videographer many times, and can say without a doubt that she is professional and passionate. She has the ability to tailor her work to her client, while making sure that her own vision is present, which always makes for incredible videos. Éloïse is also amazingly creative and hardworking, and I cannot wait to collaborate with her again!" Alice Pierre, Photographer
