Valerie Clermont Girard

Valérie Clermont-Girard is a transdisciplinary artist whose practice combines poetry, body, and the living.
Her ecofeminist creations are born first from the senses and the felt, and seek to inscribe themselves in deep time. Also a researcher with the research group "Ecopoetic Approaches to Contemporary Dramaturgies" (UQAM) and active on the literary scene, she has received distinctions as finalist (2024) and laureate (2025) in the "Place des Arts and UQAM Poetry Night" competition.
In parallel, she works to democratize poetry by leading cultural mediation projects, creative writing workshops, and the "Word & Poetry" events.
