Michelle Segre

Dans ses sculptures composées de plâtre, de câbles, de filets, de déchets récupérés et de diverses matières organiques, Michelle Segre élabore une vision hétérogène, marquée tant par les idoles du néolithique que par Joan Miró et la science-fiction. L'effet est fantastique et bizarre, comme une invitation à négocier une réalité alternative et un ensemble sculptural d'inconnues. Les motifs dessinés à l'aide de fils de couleurs vives (pourpre, rouge pomme d'amour, jaune moutarde), d'éclats de matériaux réfléchissants et d'une toile d'objets suggestifs et énigmatiques évoquent des patterns cellulaires détaillés et des visions astrales. L'œuvre de Segre se situe à la limite où toute chose demeure fragmentaire et incomplète, sur le point de se désagréger, refusant de répondre aux attentes de manière prévisible. Le processus est improvisé et fluide, et il en résulte des pièces aussi ludiques qu'intenses.

Segre a exposé au sein d'institutions telles que la Cress Gallery de l'Université de Tennessee à Chattanooga et le Musée d'art de l'université de l'État de New York (SUNY) à Albany (Antecedents of the Astral Hamster). Ses œuvres ont également été intégrées à des expositions de groupe, notamment dans les lieux suivants : CU Art Museum à Boulder, Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art à Kansas City, et P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center à Long Island City. Elle s'est vu attribuer le prix de l'American Academy of Arts and Letters, la bourse de la John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, la bourse de l'Artists' New York Foundation for the Arts et le prix de la biennale Louis Comfort Tiffany.
