About
Chantal Michelle is a composer and interdisciplinary artist whose work engages with the spatial and tactile properties of sound. Her practice incorporates feedback systems, multichannel speaker arrangements, and psychoacoustic phenomena to explore the relationship between sound, perception, and physical space. She is interested in the fragility of perception and its ability to be altered, disrupted, or reconstructed. Her projects span site-responsive installations, hand-blown glass instruments, conceptual scores, and recorded works.
Michelle’s work has been presented at numerous festivals, venues, and contemporary art spaces worldwide, including the Royal Academy of Arts (UK), the Seoul Museum of Art (KR), Het HEM (NL), Fridman Gallery (US), Cafe OTO (UK), MUTEK (MX), and Silent Green (DE). Her discography includes a forthcoming LP on Shelter Press and previous releases on Dinzu Artefacts, Warm Winters, and Somewhere Press. She is also half of the experimental noise project ⎤⎤⎤, with releases on Superpang and Notice Recordings. Her work has been supported by
grants from institutions in the US, Germany, and the UK, including The Foundation for Contemporary Arts (US), the Berlin Senate Department for Culture (DE), the Sonic Art Research Unit (UK), and the Feminist Center for Creative Work (US). Michelle holds an MFA from Bard College’s Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts.
