Charline Dally

Charline Dally is an artist living between France and Quebec. Her practice combines analog video signals and computer-generated imagery through films, installations, and performances. At the same time science-fiction and poetic reverie, her work outlines spaces where human, biological, mineral, and technological identities are played out and outplayed. Her work has been presented at MOCA (Toronto), MAJ (Joliette, QC), FIFA (Montréal), Les Abattoirs (Toulouse), CTM festival (Berlin), and Fresnoy (France).

Filmography: Le disque de poussière (2023); Dickinsonia (2022); Corps minéral (2021)
