Chantal Michelle A Vulnerable Landscape

2026 Overtoon Artist-in-Residence (March-April)

During my residency at Overtoon in Brussels, I will continue my work on the spatial potentials of the hand-blown glass instruments I have been developing, examining their harmonic structures, resonances, and sensitivities to environmental stimuli. I will extend this research through new recordings and spatial compositions that explore how sound interacts with architecture and perception, with particular attention to developing installation configurations that respond to the listener’s position within the space.
