Bio
HAT’s work originates from various subjects, and uses different media such as light, video, and sound, to create multimedia installations and experimental short films. In their cinematographic exploration and their artistic work, the artists never confine themselves to a specific genre. Using various techniques like time-lapse, animation, projection mapping, and field recording manipulation, their work is at the crossroads of digital and analogue worlds.
HAT is formed by three artists (Hyacinthe Raimbault, Angie Richard, Tracey Richard) with different backgrounds who share their skills to create art installations, experimental films, and VJ projections for live concerts. Since 2018, their work has been showcased at several festivals throughout the Maritimes (RE:FLUX, Inspire, Messtival, Third Shift, Area 506, Lumière, Nocturne) as well as nationally from coast to coast (Dawson City, Vancouver, Montréal...) and internationally in Louisiana and Paris.
HAT received the "La vague ACIC/ONF Award" for the Best Acadian Short Film for "Le grous poisson" at the Festival International du Cinéma Francophone en Acadie, 33rd edition in 2019.
