Camille Laurelli

Artist's country of origin: Estonia

Camille Laurelli (born 1981) is a French artist, familiar to Estonian art audiences largely due to her participation in curatorial projects at the Contemporary Art Museum of Estonia (“Side Effects” and “& So On & So Forth”, both from 2013).

She studied art at art institutes in Annecy and Grenoble. Laurelli works in different media including video, sculpture, performance and photography. In the 40-piece series “Hour Glasses” (2007-2015) she photographed cigarette butts, brimming ash trays becoming a kind of mechanism for marking passing time.
