“Eléonore de
Montesquiou (1970, Paris) is a Franco-Estonian artist. Her work
revolves around
the articulation between private and official histories, personal and national
identities. It tackles
the intricacies and ambiguities of living in the margins. Eléonore tapes testimonies, creating
prosthetic memories of repressed histories. In her documentary-informed works,
her camera
becomes the voice of these voiceless people.” Thibaut de Ruyter
