Born in 1966 in Seine-Maritime, Pierre Creton is an artist and filmmaker. He was a student at the École des Beaux-Arts in Le Havre. In 1991, after graduating, he became a farm worker, taking on a range of jobs from beekeeping to herding cattle, which led him to make films about the master/slave dialectic and the relationship between humans and animals. He lives and works in Normandy in the Pays de Caux region which he never tires of capturing and filming. He has made around twenty films.
