MARIE-MICHELLE DESCHAMPS
Canadian artist, born in 1980 in Montreal. Works and live in Zurich and Montreal.
Marie-Michelle Deschamps’ work explores the problematic nature of signification, as well as the fragile boundaries that organize the world. From letter to word, from word to image, and from book to object, her installations recall, allude to, and deconstruct language as a means of investigating the relationship between words and objects. More specifically, she interpret and manifest the gaps between language and text as lived physical experience. her installations are strange settings where sculptures and images dialogue in immersive ambiguous environments that are always accompanied by a written component where she presents metaphorical instructions that could potentially influence the experience of the viewer.
Marie-Michelle Deschamps (b. 1980) lives and works in Montreal and Glasgow, UK, where she graduated with an MA from the Glasgow School of Art in 2012.
Recent exhibitions include a two person presentation at the Sunday Art Fair in London, UK with Galerie Gregor Staiger, Zurich (2013); Valise, BQ, Berlin (2013), Germany; Routine Investigations, a duo with Justin Stephens at CCA Glasgow (2013); Standard, David Dale Gallery, Glasgow (2013); Master Readings, Espace Saint-Valentin, Lausanne, Switzerland (2013); Don’t leave me this way, Kunstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin (2012); Life-Size, articule, Montreal, (2011). Deschamps has upcoming solo exhibitions at Collective Gallery, Edinburgh; Galerie Gregor Staiger, Zurich; and Battat Contemporary Montreal, all in 2014. In November 2013, she was the artist in residence at Studio Voltaire, London.
