Nathalie Ferlut

After a baccalaureate in plastic arts in Nîmes, Ferlut obtained a DEUG in art history and then in film school at the Paul Valéry University Montpellier 3. After attending the comic book workshop at the Beaux-Arts d'Angoulême, she obtained a diploma in model making in 1993. She worked in cartooning, before launching, in 2000, her first comic book, Ether Glister, a science fiction series drawn by Yoann, then Thierry Leprévost. In January 2010, she published Elisa (Delcourt). In the same year, she collaborated in the online serial, Les Autres Gens, scripted by Thomas Cadène. In 2013, Ferlut published Eve sur la balançoire, inspired by the true story of Evelyn Nesbit, an American showgirl from the early 20th century, mainly known for her involvement in the murder of her ex-lover, the architect Stanford White, by her first husband, Harry Kendall Thaw. Inspired by the paintings of Edgar Degas, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, and Félix Vallotton, this is the first album in which Ferlut works as a colorist. Her next book, Andersen, les Ombres d'un conteur, focuses on the figure of Hans Christian Andersen. Each of the twelve chapters recounts an episode in the writer's life and is presented in the form of a tale. In collaboration with the cartoonist Tamia Baudouin, Ferlut conceived in 2017 the album Artemisia (Delcourt), which tells the life of the Italian artist Artemisia Gentileschi. Dans la forêt des lilas, written by Ferlut and drawn by Tamia Baudouin, was published in 2019.
