Camille Norment was born in Silver Spring, Maryland in 1970. She studied interactive technologies at New York University and literary science and history of art at the University of Michigan. In the late 1990s, Norment worked at Interval Research, a research and development technology laboratory co-founded by Paul Allen and David Liddle.[2] There, she worked on haptically manipulating media, among other projects.[3]
In 2015, the Office for Contemporary Art Norway (OCA) selected her to represent Norway in the Nordic Pavilion at the Venice Biennale,[4] where she presented her work "Rapture".[5]
Additionally, Norment has completed several commissioned works to public spaces, amongst others the sound installation "Within the Toll" (2011) for Henie Onstad Kunstsenter[6] and her 2008 work "Triplight", which in 2013 was featured at the entrance of the MoMA exhibition "Soundings: A Contemporary Score."[7][8]
In 2017 Camille Norment presented a solo exhibition at Oslo Kunstforening.[9] This constituted her first solo presentation in Norway.
