Camille Brasselet is a French photographer born in 1997. After attending the Academy of FineArts in Brittany in 2015 where she experimented in painting, drawing, but mainly photography, she relocated to Lyon where she continued to focus on photography studies. She currently works both in Lyon and Paris.
Her work navigates around the body, figure and character, mixing at once pictural references and a certain form of uncanny. Her photographic approach attempts to grasp the medium with different visual and plastic perspectives, revolving around the images’s world and their representations. « This figuration suggests an out-of-frame, a mystery which becomes the imaginary’s flesh.Like an ajar door leading to an other, it’s a fragment of time which becomes the expression of a whole always held back. It’s essentially what escapes us, this flaw that cannot be defined and that is beyond our understanding which attracts my curiosity. »
The notion of identity, viewed through the prism of the female character, lies at the heart of her photographic practice and is conceived as a figure in transformation, another possible version of the self. Photography becomes the space where this multiplicity can suddenly exist.
Camille exhibits her work in France and abroad, both in collaboration with galleries and festivals. In 2020 she was part of the three Fotofever Prize laureates highlighting young contemporary photography’s work. She was a finalist for the 26th edition of HSBC prize for photography. She published her first book The Sound of Silence with Editions Bessard, in 2021. Subsequently, she would go on to receive le19M Prize for arts and crafts photography as part of the Picto Prize of Fashion Photography 2022 which included a collaboration with the Maison GOOSSENS which was exhibited at the MUCEM in Marseille in 2024. She continues to expand her practice by exploring additional media, including video and writing.
She is represented by Agence VU' and Galerie Artistics in Paris and by Fine Art Oslo Gallery in Norway.
