Camille Cornu grew up in Normandy before studying literature and a master’s degree in literary creation at Paris 8. After activism in French feminist circles, they spent several years in Scotland, where they encountered a feminism more open to trans issues. They developed an English-language poetic style there, before moving back to France to write Photosynthèses in French. Camille is a member of the autrix collective RER Q, united around poetry and the defense of gender minorities. Together, they perform in France and Europe. They published the novel Habilétés Sociales (Flammarion, 2018) and contributed to the collective collection Lettres aux jeunes poétesses (L’Arche, 2021).
