About our Panelists
About Camille Pier

He is currently recording an album for his new musical project "Pierre Rococo", at the crossroads of music, performance and cartoon. Since 2020, he has returned to the visual arts to illustrate his texts and those of other authors, and is preparing a comic book project. Since April 2020, he has been conducting a poetic investigation into masculinities with men and people who identify with the masculine. The future work will aim to represent other models of men.
About Claude-Emmanuelle Gajan-Maull

In 2019 she signs in agency as an « inbetween » model. In the continuity she makes her debut in the cinema, and after some small roles she becomes known in 2018 in the film Climax by Gaspar Noé, thanks to her role of a cisgender mother. She was also contacted in 2020 to interpret a role in the music videos of the EP Air by Jeanne Added.
Mainly at the beginning of her career as a model, she also works as a physiognomist at Parisian LGBTQIA+ and/or racialized parties. This contact with the nightlife opens new doors for her as she simultaneously tries her hand at DJing and performs at an event at the Gaité Lyrique in 2019. Finally, because of her intersectional position and her commitment to the trans community, she was recruited in 2021 as a queer consultant for Jean Paul Gaultier.
Although her plastic art practice has slowed down, Claude-Emmanuelle is in perpetual representation of her main subject: the construction of identities. This is what she strives to bring to life every day through her transition on social networks.
