This episode, we are thrilled to be joined by the artist Camille Henrot.
Camille examines the intersections of anthropology, mythology, technology, and emotion, creating works that question how humans make sense of an increasingly complex world.
At the center of her practice is an interest in what it means to be both a private individual and a global subject.
She draws on a range of references including literature, psychoanalysis, and social media in order to probe these questions.
In one of her most famous works, Grosse Fatigue from 2013, Camille explored the collection and structuring of information and knowledge.
Created as part of the Smithsonian Artists Research Fellowship Program in Washington, DC, the 13-minute-long video is set on a computer desktop, where countless windows containing images, data, Web pages, and videos continually open, accumulate, and close. The work received the Silver Lion at the 55th Venice Biennale.
Camille has also maintained a creative approach to how she works with museums. For instance, in 2017 she took over the Palais de Tokyo in Paris with an exhibition called Days are Dogs.
And, most recently here in New York, Camille debuted a new body of bronze sculptures at Hauser and Wirth.
