born in 1996 (Montréal, Canada)
based in Brussels (Belgium)
Camille Poitevin is a french multidisciplinary artist based in Brussels. Installation plays a central role in her practice: drawing from lens-based media, sculpture, and sound, she creates time for introspection in a fast-paced world. In doing so, she aims to challenge social norms and narratives that underpin our daily lives, unfreezing perceptions of identity, roles, and human relations.
Camille Poitevin earned a BA in applied arts from Concordia University in Montreal (2018), and an MA in photography from ENSAV La Cambre in Brussels (2022) during which she was awarded a creation grant by the King Baudouin Foundation and the Servix Prize. Her work has since been exhibited in Belgium (Beursschouwburg, BPS22, Hangar Art Center, Ateliers Mommen, HISK Gosset Site, CAL Charleroi), the Netherlands (as part of Currents#10 program at Marres Huis voor Hedendaagse Cultuur), France (FRAC Franche-Comté), and Spain (InCadaqués Festival OFF). In 2025, she participates in the collective public space exhibition Art au Centre in Liège, and in the .tiff Emerging Belgian Photography program. She currently works in Brussels in her studio at Koekelhouse (Young European Artists) with her collective a.02.
