Alexandre LAROSE

With a background in both engineering and a Master of Fine Arts in filmmaking from Concordia, the Montréal-based filmmaker Alexandre Larose brings explicit technical skill together with intuition and an on-going process of trial and error. His process-based cinematic explorations have resulted in stunning visions of movement through space and across layers of personal memory in work that evokes the embodied nature of visual experience. His astonishing ”Brouillard – Passage #14” (2014) has been shown at the 10. UX and gave the impact to present the Québec experimental filmmakers' scene.
