About
Chantal Michelle is a composer and interdisciplinary artist working primarily with sound, focusing on its spatial and tactile properties. Her practice often incorporates feedback systems, multichannel speaker arrays, and psychoacoustic phenomena to explore the delicate interplay between sound, perception, and physical space. She is interested in the fragility of perception and its ability to be altered, disrupted, or reconstructed. Her work includes site-responsive installations, hand-blown glass instruments, conceptual scores, and recorded material,
Michelle’s work has been presented at venues, festivals, and institutions internationally, including Fridman Gallery [US], Cafe OTO [UK], MUTEK [MX], C/O Berlin [DE], Het HEM [NL], and The Stone [US]. Her discography has been published on Dinzu Artefacts, SUPERPANG, Warm Winters Ltd., and Somewhere Press, with a forthcoming LP on Shelter Press in 2025.
