Biography

Marie-Michelle Deschamps’ work focuses on language as an inhabitable space – a veritable structure and place where aesthetic forms reside. Her practice is rooted within conversation, collaboration and translation, underscoring the transformative place of language within the formal dialect of architecture.

Marie-Michelle Deschamps holds an MFA in visual art from the Glasgow School of Art (Scotlant). She has exhibited at the Darling Foundry (Montreal, Canada), Ausstellungraum Klingenthal in Basel (Switzerland), MUDAM (Luxembourg), Occidental Temporary in Paris (France) and Galerie de l’UQO (Gatineau, Canada). Deschamps’ work is found in the permanent collections of the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal (Canada), Voorlinden Museum (Netherlands), the Lafayette Foundation Collection (France), the Glasgow School of the Arts Libraries (Scotland), and the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (Canada). Her work is also found in private collections in France, Canada, Italy, United Kingdom and Switzerland.
