Biography

Suzan Vachon is an artist with interdisciplinary training. She taught Activités vidéographiques and Recherches vidéographiques at the Université de Montréal’s Pavillon Mont-Royal for 12 years. She has taught at the École des arts visuels et médiatiques at UQAM since 1992. Vachon is interested in the metamorphosis of form and meaning through compositional work with still and moving images. Her research deals with the haptic dimension of image, sound and text and is part of a continuum of work centred around the archive, literature, cinema and the imaginaire of languages. Her videographic and interdisciplinary works have been shown in Canada, the United States, South America, Palestine and several European countries.
