About Chloé

Hello to you,

To put it simply, one address to discover my work, on my website:
www . chloelaforest . com

Independent art director, working mainly in the press and publishing. Where information and stories are told, emotionally conveyed through words and images.

Photography interests me particularly. Letting oneself be guided by a gaze, understanding an intention, and feeling a rhythm. Then leading readers in this wake, in a sensitive and committed way, through graphic design, editing, iconographic research...

My work is aimed at both adults and young people, for about ten years. Including eight rich years spent within the editorial team of the magazines XXI and 6Mois, as well as with the publishing houses Les Arènes and L’Iconoclaste.

    December 2021 - Today (4 years and 8 months)
    Paris, France
    Art direction, editorial committee, iconography, layout, commission illustrations
    Launch and creation of "La Gazette de Droits d'urgence"

    Create a space for dialogue for those, a team of lawyers, who are fighting to restore the voice (and rights) of those in situations of exclusion. Voice, voices, and law. Each issue focuses on a single theme. For the first, the mistreatment of foreign nationals by the French prefecture.

    A gazette designed entirely in black and white, with textures and moving shapes. Illustrations as a pulse of life, a walking dynamic. Each time, a large, single documentary photo to quickly convey the situation. The texts are multiple to encourage us all to reclaim our rights, to take an interest in them: proclaimed testimonies, contextualized legal articles, literary quotes, numerical data, references, etc.

    Collective writing by the lawyers of Droits d’urgence, coordinated by Alice Babin, author and journalist. Illustrations by Alice Meteignier, photography by Olivier Coret/Divergence.

    Creation and launch of the newspaper "Les Nouvelles de Terres de France"

    As critic Albert Thibaudet said, "the novel in France is the province." Building on its past and the richness of its editorial content, the literary collection "Terres de France" is launching its own newspaper. "Les Nouvelles de Terres de France" explores our regions and reveals the specific culture of each of these places. Featuring, in particular, a major cross-interview between two authors from the collection – here, Didier Cornaille and Antonin Sabot, the voice of a bookseller, writing rituals, and the season's news. With illustrations by Anne Cresci and texts by Laurence Caracalla.
