GAELLE SEJOUR

Winner of the "Special Mention" award for the “Emerging Photography in Haiti” competition organized by FOKAL in October 2022, Gaëlle Séjour is a Haitian photographer based in Haiti. She has been practicing commercial photography full-time since 2015. Gaëlle studied visual arts at the University of Moncton in New Brunswick and holds a certificate in photography/videography from the Marsan Photography College in Montreal.

Her primarily artistic education shaped her personality and gave her a deep and diverse artistic culture, as well as keys to better understand the world and the complexity of human beings.
Gaëlle was introduced to the world of art by her father and sister. Patient, attentive, and meticulous, their influence encouraged her to dive deeper into this creative realm. As an introvert, Gaëlle finds in photography a way to freely express her creativity and intimate personal worlds. Deeply immersed in art, she seeks to reflect the tensions of her soul, her community, and nature through her imagery.

Her images are filled with emotion and stem from a world she has built for herself—one that represents her space of comfort and growth, and into which she warmly invites others.
Though photography holds a special place in her life, Gaëlle also devotes time to other passions of equal value, such as painting, sculpture, printmaking, and drawing.
