Thibault Belouis

France

Biography

After earning his degree in Graphic Design from the school of art direction and interior architecture Penninghen in Paris in 2015, he worked as a iconographer for production companies specializing in photography and commissioned films. In 2018, he joined the production company Passion Pictures (Paris) as an art director. This international company, renowned for its documentaries and animated films, has been recognized multiple times with Academy Awards. His professional and artistic focus is now on photographic, video, and sound works, exploring the existence of the world around him. He practices photography spontaneously, ranging from landscapes to street photography, aiming above all to capture a certain delicacy through a contemplative and slightly offbeat perspective. The relationship between reality and the image has always fascinated him. In June 2023, he decided to dedicate himself fully to his artistic sensibility, exploring photography, video, and sound. His artistic commitment led him to travel across the Americas for one year, during which he produced Dias Tras Días, a series finalist for the Prix Bergger for Black and White Analog Photography 2025.
In 2026, he will participate in the KIOSKO residency program in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, to develop a project exploring the connection between memory and wild nature.

Project

“Dias Tras Días” by Thibault Belouis is a long-form analogue photographic series born out of an eleven-month journey across the Americas, from Peru to Alaska, in which the artist treated travel itself as both subject and methodology. Conceived as a travel diary, the work brings together black-and-white and colour film images made day after day, away from spectacular events, in order to explore the subtle poetics of ordinary life, place and perception.

Belouis’s practice navigates a space between documentary legacy and imagined terrain, weaving moments of silence, landscape and human trace into a visual narrative that blurs the boundaries between real and surreal, reportage and personal reflection.
