Mindscape/Le paysagiste is a 1976 pinscreen animation short film by Jacques Drouin, produced by the National Film Board of Canada.[1] Mindscape/Le paysagiste was Drouin's second pinscreen work, after his 1974 work Trois exercices sur l'écran d'épingles d'Alexeieff. Mindscape/Le paysagiste won 18 awards, including a special jury prize from the Ottawa International Animation Film Festival.[2][3]

A film without dialogue, Mindscape shows an artist stepping inside his painting and wandering through a symbolically rich landscape.[4]
