As a multidisciplinary artist trained as a D.O.P. in her undergraduate degree at l'Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM), is very interested in sensorial cinema in her short films and installation projects. She just completed an MFA degree in experimental media at UQAM.
She believes that a work of art should be considered first and foremost a sensory experience.
Her research and artistic creation interests are, between others, proprioception and sensoriality in the field of cinema and audiovisual installation; Exploration and research of the different ways to achieve haptics in viewers; the use of sound as a complete sensory tool which also summons the sense of touch and taste; synaesthesia; and the use of the different characteristics of sound (frequencies, timbres, spatialization, etc.) and image (texture, movement, light, etc.) to develop effective techniques for sensory immersion of the viewer.
Andrée-Anne Roussel's work has been shown at Centre Bang, La Bande Vidéo, Sapporo International Shot Film Festival and Regard sur le Court Métrage au Saguenay.
