Through her lens, this everyday act becomes a moment of intimacy, introspection, and human connection. The artist subverts the conventions of studio photography: while the frame is carefully composed, the staging gives way to a lived, shared moment. The camera freely captures micro-expressions, suspended gestures, and states of presence. Women and gender-minoritized people are invited to take part in this collective yet deeply personal experience. States of an Eating Self focuses on what escapes controlled imagery. By rejecting the aesthetics of perfection, the series opens a space to reinhabit the body : a space where the inner self can emerge. Eating becomes an act of attention, a site of resistance to the norms that shape our desires and appearances. 1.

Lenses salvaged from used disposable cameras, placed in front of a video of mouths eating, transform the screen into an unstable, hypnotic optical surface. The image only reveals itself through the viewer’s movement and the time they are willing to grant it. Presented like a storefront advertising screen, the installation diverts a device intrinsic to the attention economy: the mouths, associated with bodies historically monitored, disciplined, and sexualized, are neither offered nor consumable. Filtered and slowed down, they elude regimes of visibility that demand clear, fast, and immediately available images.

with Kadia Doumbouya &amp; Déborah Claire&nbsp; Welcome to Our Table is built around a shared meal. The table is open to women and gender-minoritized people who feel concerned by the invitation. Through a simple, lightly mediated protocol, participants eat together while being witnessed by an audience. The performance frames eating as a collective and political act, where gestures and conversations, create a space of care, visibility, and shared presence. The performance becomes then an installation with the remaining table of the meal and its recording playing in loop in the space.

In her video installation, the small rituals that make up our daily habits have become liquified. The scenes are played out by herself and represent four rooms, which show four versions of her living daily life. The screens act as surveillance screens, turning the viewer into a confused voyeur.&nbsp; Exhibition Currents#10 Choose your own story, Marres Huis voor Hedendaagse Cultuur, Maastricht, Netherlands, 2023. https://camillepoitevin.com/corps-liquoreux Mon, 18 Dec 2023 17:01:46 +0000 camille poitevin https://camillepoitevin.com/corps-liquoreux <img width="2835" height="2126" width_o="2835" height_o="2126" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/685b25a589e24028290a8f103d3127dee08162e03642ef0295509a305dbc6b21/MOCK-UP-INTERSTICE---copie.jpeg" data-mid="221640287" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/685b25a589e24028290a8f103d3127dee08162e03642ef0295509a305dbc6b21/MOCK-UP-INTERSTICE---copie.jpeg" /> L’interstice, 2022 photography inkjet print, 50 x 65 cm Exhibition Tell Me Louder, HISK Gosset Site, Brussels, Belgium, 2022. https://camillepoitevin.com/femme-fontaine-1 Mon, 18 Dec 2023 16:59:27 +0000 camille poitevin https://camillepoitevin.com/femme-fontaine-1 Femme fontaine, 2023 mapping sculpture The exhibition plunges us into the world of a wedding party about to get into full swing.
