Aurore Émaille grew up in the Mercantour region of Nice. After studying art (Ecole Estienne Paris, Haute Ecole des Arts du Rhin Strasbourg, Academy of Fine Arts Bologna) and some time spent in Italy, she moved back to the Alpes-Maritimes department at the foot of the mountains. A multidisciplinary artist-director, she is interested in natural and cultural heritage and, through artistic creation, tries to question the links between humans and their living environment.
