Les mystères de la nature, narration documentaire dans l’œuvre de Jean Painlevé & Geneviève Hamon by Iris Ranchez
Iris Rachez mixed up Lilian and Tonka (both typefaces published and designed by Céline Hurka, with Tonka created in collaboration with Huw D. Williams) in her graduation thesis at ENSA Nancy. A notable detail is the use of the ornaments included in Lilian.
Iris describes the content of the publication as follows:
Les mystères de la nature, narration documentaire dans l’œuvre de Jean Painlevé & Geneviève Hamon (“The Mysteries of Nature, Documentary Narration in the Work of Jean Painlevé & Geneviève Hamon”) is a dissertation about the movies of the filmmaker and biologist Jean Painlevé and his co-director Geneviève Hamon. In their films, they use the cinema as a tool, an eye wide open to life, to reveal the mysteries of creatures that we cannot perceive but that inhabit ponds, streams, coastlines, and the ocean. Between scientific observations and sensitive ones, their work fosters a rich reflection on our relationship with animals, our environment, and reality.
