Michelle Lacombe

Since graduating from Concordia University in 2006, Michelle Lacombe has developed a unique practice at the intersection of performance, drawing and body art. Her work, which takes the form of both short-lived actions and research projects involving a literally embodied conceptual approach, is characterised by her use of simple gestures, mark-making and strategies of discomfort to complicate the reading of her body. Recipient of the Bourse Plein Sud 2015, her work has been presented in North America, Mexico, Argentina and Europe as part of performance events, exhibitions and colloquia. Her artistic practice is accompanied by a commitment to supporting undisciplined and independent forms of artistic creation. She is currently the director of VIVA! Art Action.
