biography

Born and based in Glasgow, Michelle Hannah is an artist, writer and performer working across sound, expanded photography, speculative writing, moving image and vocal performance. Through processes of excavation and sampling, they assemble post-digital artefacts, fragments of popular culture and material remnants to explore queer dystopias, embodiment, memory and autofiction. Their work brings these elements into relation through atmospheres of ruin, decay and transformation. They have exhibited and performed at Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh; HOME, Manchester; CGP London; ZKU, Berlin; Dundee Contemporary Arts; BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art, Gateshead; Tramway, Glasgow; Mingsheng Art Museum, Shanghai; Stills, Edinburgh; Tyneside Cinema, Newcastle; Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow; Cooper Gallery, Dundee; Tate Liverpool; and the Royal College of Art, London. Their work has also been presented at Glasgow International Festival of Contemporary Art, TULCA Festival, Dresden Film Festival, British Art Network and LUX Scotland. Their curatorial work includes events for Glasgow Short Film Festival, Niteflights at CCA, ROST club, No Bounds and Montez Press Radio.
