She is an image seeker, a sound discoverer, an explorer of cinema and media arts in her own intimate, artisanal, and eco-sensitive way. Her work explores the ephemeral, the fragile, the gesture, and disappearance. Her cinema is an art of perception, impressions, and evocation\u2014a form of poetry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She came to PIX FILM to refine her skills in optical printing and other analogue tools, to recharge, and to reflect on her practice through connection and exchange with Toronto\u2019s cultural life. While in residence, she worked on <em>Sillages<\/em>, a film exploring our relationship to water and the St. Lawrence River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We invite you to join us for a screening and conversation about her work-in-progress, <strong><em>Sillages \u2013 Wake<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>A film about water and light, shot on 16mm black and white film, hand-processed into positive reversal using plant-based techniques, then tinted with natural dyes made from vegetation. The footage is later reworked using an optical printer onto colour film stock. These processes rely heavily on water and light to bring the images to life. The used water eventually returns to nature, impacting aquatic life and plant ecosystems. While the amount of waste generated by artisanal filmmaking is negligible compared to industrial waste, it still concerns me. I worry about what I leave in my wake\u2014but the pull of light, and the traces it reveals on film, is stronger than my guilt. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\"> &#x1f3a5; <strong>On screen<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\"><strong><em>R_pour ne pas c\u00e9der d\u2019un pouce<\/em>  <\/strong>(8 minutes, num\u00e9rique et 16mm, son, 2014 -> Digital)<br><strong>Experimental documentary<\/strong>, shot on 16mm and digital, exploring the theme of resistance.
