ABOUT

Hello, my name is Jolene Cartmill.

I’m a filmmaker, photographer, creator, dance facilitator and collaborative artist. For many years I’ve maintained separate websites for different aspects of my work, but it felt like time to bring it all together — partly for there to be a home for all the unseen work, and also in recognition that each discipline I’ve spent time practicing deepens my approach to the other disciplines. For example, work as a collaborative artist has shifted how I approach film-making. Facilitating Dance Awake, a practice of embodied awareness and free dance, has opened new channels in photography for me. The site is part sharing, part portfolio and part invitation for collaboration (yes, with you!).

I have a (registered) business: The Love Picture Company and enjoy producing (with the team) great little documentaries/films for clients, and I’m also open to collaborating on photographic and mixed media art projects. There is a blog-type section on the site of dance facilitation mixes I’ve made and more information about what I facilitate…

All writing, imagery, video, photography, art produced and copyright to Jolene Cartmill, unless otherwise specified.

With love, Jolene
