Every year, thousands of pigeons are netted, kidnapped, and exploited for profit under the guise of “sport.” Among these gentle, intelligent birds, many of them are lost pets or racing survivors, violently captured in city streets, parks, and public spaces. Torn from their homes and the skies they were born to fly, they are stuffed into crates, transported in cruel conditions, left without food or water for days. Their wings are clipped to prevent escape, making them easy targets in live pigeon shooting events.
This is not tradition. This is not sport.
This is torture.
These birds are not given a chance to survive. They are released only to be gunned down in midair, frightened, injured, and often left to die slowly in pain if not killed instantly. Many never even make it out of the cages alive.
We must call this what it is: animal cruelty, driven by greed and entertainment rooted in violence.
Pigeons deserve protection, not persecution.
Raise your voice for them. End the suffering.
Say no to pigeon netting and live shooting.

Elodie M. Richard was born in France but with a complex heritage including Polish and Russian. Due to her father’s career in the Army her family had to regularly move and adapt to new locations in France and abroad. Her life path as a child and adult is made of travels and regular changes of geographical locations, constantly balancing between feeling of loss, challenges and new life starts.
Unlike a superficial society that gets lost in ultra consumption, Elodie creates a refined, symbolic and meditative world around the broad notion of identity. She takes her inspirations from personal experiences but also current events and her connection to nature.
The artist currently lives in Central Florida with her husband (artist himself) and their small flock of 5 rescued pigeons.
This page shows an inventory of her work as a painter and illustrator since 2016 up to this current year.
Some of her artworks appear as sold, if interested in an art piece, please private message Elodie.
