Mr. De Garie

Julien De Garie, a screen printing enthusiast and teacher, explores creativity, teaching, and the meaning of being an artist. 

SYNOPSIS

Is creativity the only thing that defines an artist? Visual arts teacher Julien De Garie is an insatiably curious, self-confessed screen printing geek and texture junkie. This documentary is a glitch-art-inspired plunge into the world of a singularly passionate human and his equally singular vision of creativity, the art of teaching, and what it means to be an artist. What if teaching were our true masterwork?
