seminar of accidental wisdom: Laura Gozlan

Paris-based visual artist Laura Gozlan studied scenography at Helsinki’s University of Art and Design and EnsAD in Paris. She graduated from Le Fresnoy, National Studio of Contemporary Arts, in 2007, where she studied with director Chantal Akerman. Gozlan has exhibited her work in various french institutions and internationally, including MoCo in Montpellier, 40mcube in Rennes, and Futura in Prague.
Her films and installations depict outrageously articulated moments of desire and satisfaction in contrasting, intimate settings. Featuring darker elements, her work questions social norms and explores the aesthetics of prosthetics and aging. Recently, Gozlan directed a series of micro-fictions in which she performs, documenting the transformations of a recurring androgynous figure navigating through cosmetics, politics, and altered states of consciousness, exploring their transformative potential.
