Let’s collaborate
Michelle’s practice explores playfulness, absurdity, fleeting emotions, and the nuances of everyday moments, often challenging conventional perspectives on technology and its role in society. Blending creativity with technical expertise, she uses physical computing, robotics, fabrication, and creative coding to create works that range from interactive installations to experimental performances. Believing that art is for everyone, Michelle makes artwork that invites interactivity and participation, where audience engagement often is essential to the completion of the piece. Through each piece, Michelle seeks to create shared experiences that invite fun, reflection, and connection.
