With a background in analogue experimental film, Charlotte Clermont explores the temporal dimensions of how the body shapes, preserves, and creates what we perceive as reality, using film, sound and text. Drawing on materials from her immediate environment, she works upon the chemical sensitivity of film through various alterations, while leaving a large place to chance. Her work generally develops an inherent, autonomous, and symbolically encoded metalanguage.

Originally from Canada, she is currently based in Helsinki after completing her master’s degree in Time and Space from Academy of Fine Arts of the University of the Arts Helsinki. Her most recent film du soleil, que ça existe, has been nominated by Nordic and Baltic Young Artist Award (2024) and is selected for upcoming solo exhibitions at Filmverkstaden (Vaasa, 2025), and Gallery Hippolyte (Helsinki, 2026). Her work has been shown internationally in film festivals, such as International Film Festival Rotterdam (Netherlands), Fracto (Germany), Künstlerhaus Bethanian (Germany), Festival des cinémas différents et expérimentaux de Paris (France), Edinburgh International Film Festival (Scotland), Festival ECRĀ (Brazil), 25th Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival (Czechia), Beijing International Short Film Festival (China), and Saigon Experimental Film Festival (Vietnam). Her film where i don’t meet you received an award at Stuttgarter Filmwinter—Festival for Expanded Media (Germany) and a Special Mention Award at Kinoskop—Analog Experimental Film Festival (Serbia). She has been an artist in residence at Studio Kura (Japan, 2016), Signal Culture (United States, 2017), Shiro Oni (Japan, 2018), Archipelago Artist Residency in Korpo (Finland, 2022), Baltic Analog Lab (Latvia, 2024), Mustarinda (Finland, 2025), and ÖRES (Finland, 2025).
