Erika Roux (FR) is a visual artist and filmmaker based in the Netherlands. She studied at the Gerrit Rietveld academy in Amsterdam and the Piet Zwart Institute in Rotterdam. She was artist-in-residence at the Jan van Eyck academie in 2021/22.
Her practice encompasses video works, short films, multichannel video installations, and publications. She takes an intuitive, experimental, and DIY approach to cinematic tradition, moving fluidly between fiction, documentary, and the spaces in-between. Through a collaborative approach to film production, Erika interrogates established social structures, from the intimate dynamics of domestic life to broader formations of perceived national identity and belonging, considering how individuals may either break free from or comply with these frameworks.
Besides her individual artistic practice, she currently co-runs WET, a video art collective based in Rotterdam.
