CAMILLE BRASSELET is a photographer originally from Rouen, now based in Lyon. After attending the Saint Brieuc School of Fine Arts in 2015, where she experimented with painting, drawing, sculpture, and most importantly photography, she moved to Lyon to pursue higher education in photography. She subsequently exhibited her work in France as well as in Italy and Russia.
In 2020, she was one of the three winners of the Fotofever Prize, which highlights the work of young contemporary photographers. She was then a finalist in the 26th edition of the HSBC Prize for Photography. She published her first book, The Sound of Silence, with Editions Bessard in 2021. Later, she was awarded the le19M Photography Prize for Crafts as part of the 2022 Picto Prize for Fashion Photography.
Her work revolves around the body and the character, combining both pictorial references and a certain form of strangeness. Her photographic approach attempts to grasp the medium through different visual and plastic perspectives, gravitating around the world of images and their representations.
