Camille Norment
Multi-media Artist
Tuesday, September 26, 2006

Camille Norment's cross-media work is occupied with the way the body is inscribed with meaning through its use of and its negotiation with its surroundings.   As such, it engages the viewer physically and psychologically in the work through his/her negotiations with architectural, sonic, and technically interactive environments and objects.   While highly concerned with aesthetic experience, the work simultaneously spans the thresholds of the social and the political.

Norment has exhibited widely throughout the U.S. and Europe and has recently been included in exhibitions at The National Museum of Contemporary Art Oslo, Norway; the Charlottenborg Fonden, Copenhagen, Denmark; the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY; and at La Biennale di Venezia (2003).   Her work has been featured in periodicals such as Artforum , Art in America , and The New York Times . Norment holds Masters Degrees in Fine Arts and in Interactive Telecommunications, a technology arts discipline.   She is currently Professor of Art and Technology at Malmö University's School of Art, Culture, and Communication in Sweden.
