Dovecotes, also known as pigeon lofts, have long been part of European urban landscapes. These structures provide safe, dedicated spaces for pigeons to nest and roost, while also allowing for population monitoring through egg control. Instead of using cruel and ineffective methods like spikes, netting, or poisons, cities can install dovecotes to reduce conflict between humans and pigeons, while protecting these gentle, intelligent birds and their young.
Pigeons are not invaders. They are descendants of rock doves who’ve lived alongside humans for thousands of years, as messengers, companions, and survivors. They deserve dignity, shelter, and care, not injury and death.
By bringing dovecotes back, we embrace coexistence. We take responsibility for the species we’ve domesticated, and we create more compassionate urban environments.
Let’s choose care over cruelty. Let’s give pigeons a home, not harm.

Elodie M. Richard was born in France but with a complex heritage including Polish and Russian. Due to her father’s career in the Army her family had to regularly move and adapt to new locations in France and abroad. Her life path as a child and adult is made of travels and regular changes of geographical locations, constantly balancing between feeling of loss, challenges and new life starts.
Unlike a superficial society that gets lost in ultra consumption, Elodie creates a refined, symbolic and meditative world around the broad notion of identity. She takes her inspirations from personal experiences but also current events and her connection to nature.
The artist currently lives in Central Florida with her husband (artist himself) and their small flock of 5 rescued pigeons.
This page shows an inventory of her work as a painter and illustrator since 2016 up to this current year.
Some of her artworks appear as sold, if interested in an art piece, please private message Elodie.
