Photographs - series of the absent, solitary, isolated body
In this series, the images come together, evoking each in their own way, absence, solitude, isolation, emptiness through the body in intimacy which becomes part of a whole, a world of living particles, in which it immerses and sublimates itself. The body is naked, and blends into natural landscapes. The face is never really visible, to get as close as possible to a body in harmony with the elements around it.

Originally from Paris, Charlotte moved in New York after graduating from the Sorbonne University in French Literature, with a focus on audio visual. She trained at the Martha Graham School in New York City. As a dancer and interpret, she has worked with artists including Linda Tegg, Caleb Hammond (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), LEIMAY (Buto based dance theatre company) and Sidra Bell. Her choreographic and video works has been presented and performed in New York at the Muriel Schulman Theater (Triskelion Arts), Wild Project (THE CURRENT SESSIONS), Center for Performance Research, The Kraine Theater, The HOLLOWS Art Space and Tiger Strikes Asteroid Gallery. In Europe, her work has been performed at the Lake Studios in Berlin, and the National Gallery in Prague.
Now based in Paris, she is currently researching into dance as a visual form, through an exploration of the body in its environment. She designed dance performative site specific installations, using objects, materials, sound and lights. Interested by time and the concept of repetition, she studies the limits and patterns of a body in time and space. Lines are often present, whether they are explicit or implicit. They represent to her a mark, a limit point we are all exposed, in society.

Dance - photography - film
"Cage" in situ - is a choreography written and staged by Charlotte Colmant. It revisits the body's patterns, the repetition of gestures, their movement that comes and goes. An exploration of an energy that circulates between two bodies in a square, a metaphor of a feeling of isolation and confinement, which takes the form of an endless hypnotic and meditative journey.
Dance: Johanna Merceron and Julie Hendy
Sound recording: emptyset
