In a form of artistic road-trip, Olivier Crouzel embarks on board the Collectionneur, a camper van transformed into a living and exhibition space by Zebra 3, an association for the dissemination and production of contemporary art based in Bordeaux. For his project, O.Crouzel makes it a mobile residence by choosing to go down the Atlantic coast, orienting himself only on the roads or paths located on his right in order to reach the horizon.…. a path strewn with pitfalls that he inaugurates at the end of two years of pandemic, in the summer of 2021. As in many of his works, he sets up a creative protocol, triggering the camera three minutes before arriving at the seaside. He films people, views and offers our eyes an elsewhere that he went looking for with obstinacy and disobedience.
