Islay Mackenzie is an artist born in France in 1997 and raised in Belgium. With a German mother and a British father, she grew up with a multicultural outlook, and today she lives in Los Angeles, fluent in English, French and German.

“I believe in the beauty of Art.

I believe Cinema is a beautiful échappatoire:

time to run away, with or against your emotions.

It is an Art I believe must be kept alive,

an Art I cannot imagine a world without.

A world without Cinema

is a world without life.

Each character has its own journey, its own life.

My passion is to take those journeys without fear or judgment,

for those who cannot take them themselves,

and for the artists who create them.

Pour la vie du Cinéma.”
