Biography
Marc Boulay is a fierce, atypical, and prolific artist who integrates art and science into his works. He works as an author, concept artist, 3D creature designer, and senior digital sculptor. Marc is involved in numerous innovative projects in the field of evolution, whether past, future, or extraterrestrial. He is the initiator and lead author of the book "Tomorrow, The Animals of the Future" (Boulay/Steyer, Belin) and co-author of the book "How Many Fingers Does an Extraterrestrial Have?" (Lehoucq/Steyer/Boulay, Belin).
He constantly imagines and develops new worlds. His research and work combine scientific rigor and artistic creativity. His Speculative Art allows him to create timeless photorealistic works. His notable achievements include projects such as "Another World", "Carnets de Voyages Stellaires" and "Cartes Postales Interstellaires", with a special mention for the final scene he created in 360°/12k for the Planetarium of the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris. He has contributed to numerous international scientific articles, books, exhibitions, conferences, innovative concept arts, as well as large-format museographic and cinematographic productions (I-Max, 360°, 8k/12k) on the evolution of past, future and extraterrestrial biodiversity, across the world, particularly in China.
His work methodology is based on close collaboration with world-renowned scientists, which enriches his creations with exceptional anatomical and ecological precision. His works, both improbable and coherent, demonstrate his ability to imagine and develop past, future and extraterrestrial life forms while respecting scientific constraints.
