EVENT: BOXCOPY and GIRRLSOUND presents Michelle Xen
Generous Fields | Objects in the Dark
Sunday 25 November 3pm at Boxcopy
This work by Michelle Xen is part of a new series of video, performance
and sound, in which sonic-visual fields are created and transformed
over time. Using light, video, live vocals and breath, a series of video
monochromes evolve over the course of the performance from the
movements and sounds in the room.
Michelle Xen is a
Brisbane-based installation and video artist and electronic musician.
She is a graduate of the Queensland College of Art and was awarded a
Masters of Art in Research in interdisciplinary practice at QUT.
Michelle's work uses performance video, installation, costume and
painting to draw comparisons between the sometimes oppositional worlds
of contemporary art practice and pop music. Michelle has exhibited and
performed extensively throughout Australia and Japan.
