Charles-Frédérick Ouellet uses photography to examine representations of memory, historical sites, and identity. At the confluence of documentary and journalism, his work grows out of field work exploring the interconnections between physical spaces, displacements and the construction of the collective imaginary. His work takes multiple forms including conventional photography, video, installation, and artist books.
He has published four photobooks, most recently with Éditions Loco. His work has been exhibited in galleries and artist-run centers in Quebec and abroad. Ouellet has been awarded grants from the arts councils of Quebec and Canada, and his work is held in several private and public collections.
