Artist Registry
The White Columns Curated Artist Registry is an online platform for emerging and under-recognized artists to share images and information about their respective practices. The Registry seeks to create a context for artists who have yet to benefit from wider critical, curatorial or commercial support. To be eligible, artists cannot be affiliated with a commercial gallery in New York City.

RESUME
Camille Lescarbeau is a French-Canadian artist based in Tiohtià:ke/Montreal. Working through an ecofeminist lens, her textile-based practice explores themes of care, transformation, and lineage. Working exclusively with trash, found objects and inherited materials, she develops a radical, slow practice rooted in craft traditions and materiality.
She holds a BFA from Concordia University and an MFA from the Université du Québec à Montréal. Her work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions across Canada, including Regart (Lévis), Espace Pierre-Debain (Gatineau), Galerie AVE, FOFA Gallery, Artch, and Plural (Montreal). She has taken part in residencies at the NARS Foundation (New York), the Musée régional de Rimouski, the Biennale de sculpture de Saint-Jean-Port-Joli, Zocalo (Longueuil), and Atelier Retailles (Montreal). Her work is part of the Art Volt Collection and has received support from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.
Lescarbeau is committed to material research and knowledge-sharing. She regularly contributes to critical dialogues on craft, ecofeminism, and sustainable artistic practices through lectures, workshops, and public programs. She is the co-founder of UQAM’s papermaking studio, where others are now able to explore experimental approaches to hand papermaking and sustainable art processes.
