Biography
Aude Massot studied for four years at the Institut Saint-Luc in Brussels, Belgium until 2006.[1]
She then worked in Paris in advertising and animation. In 2009, she published her first album, French: Chronique d'une chair grillée (published by Les Enfants Rouges), which she drew on a script by Fabien Bertrand containing a "dark and cynical" narrative.[2] With the same writer, she delivered French: La sulfureuse épopée des bandits Miki et Magda in 2011 and 2013, which, under a humorous angle, tells the story of a "couple of mythical robbers".[3]
Next, Massot teamed up with Édouard Bourré-Guilbert and Pauline Bardin, who wrote the script for Massot's humorous Québec Land, published in 2014, which focuses on two young French expatriates.[4] Originally from Le Mans, Bourré-Guilbert and Bardin moved to Montreal temporarily in 2011 and ran a column. They got in touch with Massot, who also spent time in Montreal.[5] The episodes were broadcast for free on Delitoon for several months and met with some success before proposed a publication.
By herself, Massot undertakes non-fiction comics for SAMU Social, published by in 2017, French: Chronique du 115, une histoire du Samu social.[6] Inspired by the stories of a social worker, she meets and accompanies while he does his work within SAMU Social.[7]
She continued in the same documentary vein by collaborating with Karim Lebhour, Radio France Internationale's UN correspondent from 2010 to 2014, for a comic book about the United Nations, French: Une saison à l'ONU, au cœur de la diplomatie mondiale (2018).[8] The book was reviewed by various media, such as Le Monde, France Inter,[9] La Croix,[10] ,[11] ,[12],[13] and Le Petit Journal.[14] The album was shortlisted for the France Info Prize (2019).[15]
