Camille Norment I Kochi-Muziris Biennale 2016

Camille Norment's work utilizes sound, installation, light sculptures, drawing, performance and video. These media are united by a preoccupation with the relationship of form and space with the body of the viewer to create an aesthetic and conceptual experience. Norment uses the study of cultural psychoacoustics to frame her work and defines the term as the examination of socio-cultural phenomena through sound and music. Her investigations do not reflect the boundaries of a singular cultural agenda or perspective, but rather the latent, enduring dialogues, intersections, and contradictions of cultures. Camille performs with her ensemble, the Camille Norment Trio, consisting of electric guitar, Norwegian hardingfele, and the rare glass armonica.
