L'oeil de la baleine (2010)

This documentary follows the making of a monumental mural mosaic about the West Coast composed of 231 paintings, by over 200 artists from across Canada. Designed by Lewis Lavoie of St. Albert, Alberta, the mural requires that each contributing artist trust the process as the final image remains secret until the unveiling of the completed mural. The documentary profiles the work of Lewis Lavoie and five artists who contribute paintings to the mural, among them world-famous wildlife artist Robert Bateman, and whose visions of the world around them are as varied as the techniques they use to portray it.
