Michaela Gleave (born 1980) is a Sydney-based Australian conceptual artist best known for her use of light and her monumental site specific art works engaging with space, time and matter. She was a 2012-2013 artist-in-residence at CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science and won a churchie award in 2015.
Gleave was born in Australia in 1980. [1] She obtained a bachelor of fine arts from the University of Tasmania in 2003, [2] and a master of fine arts degree from University of New South Wales in 2007. [3]
Gleave is a Sydney-based artist [4] whose practice is rooted within the history and context of installation and runs across numerous mediums and platforms such as: digital and online, performance, photography, sculpture, video, music, data visualisation and performance. [5] Gleave investigates main narratives at the intersection of arts, science and society, with a focus on creating immersive experiences that translate the influence of an idea on the physical properties of the world. [6]
She won the churchie emerging art prize in 2015. [7] Her work is featured in the 2022 book, co-authored by Anna Briers, Edward Colless, Naomi Riddle Michaela Gleave: the Influence of an Idea on the Physical Properties of the World [8]
Gleave has developed major performance and installation works shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, Sydney; Gallery of Modern Arts, Brisbane; Dark Mofo Festival, Hobart; [9] Fremantle Arts Center, Perth; Bristol, Biennal, UK; TarraWarra Museum of Art, [10] Victoria; Carriageworks, Sydney; and Gertrude Contemporary, Melbourne. She has received residency fellowships at the New York City-based International Studio and Curatorial Program, [11] at the Australia-based Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, and at the Tokyo Wonder Site in Japan. [12] She was awarded a fellowship from the Australia Council for the Arts in 2013. [13]
Gleave has been commissioned to create several permanent installations including those at The Rechabite, Western Australia; [14] the Bendigo Art Gallery, Victoria; and her light installation, We Are Made of Stardust, constructed from LEDs at the Salamanca Art Center, Tasmania. [3] [14]
In 2013, her light installation A Day is Longer than a Year was featured in the Fremantle Arts Centre. [15] In 2014, she broadcast a seven-hour performance Waiting for Time (7-hour confetti work) that incorporated an automated confetti canon eruption every minute. [16] In 2016, her red neon [17] installation Fear Eats the Soul featured at the entrance [18] of the Dark Mofo festival in Hobart, Tasmania. [9] At the festival the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra collaborated with Gleave to perform the opening ceremony, A Galaxy of Suns. [9] In 2017, her piece The World Arrives at Night (Star Printer) [19] was featured at the University of Queensland Art Museum's exhibit New Alchemists. [20]
In 2021, Gleave's collaboration with Aileen Sage Architects was shortlisted for the National Gallery of Victoria Architecture Commission competition. [21] The same year, her 2014 piece The World Arrives at Night (Star Printer) was featured at TarraWarra Biennial. [4]
The Vivid Sydney 2022 festival featured Gleave's Endless Love atop of the Circular Quay train station. [22] On November 26, 2022, Gleave created the installation Between Us. [23] The installation, which lasted from 9pm to midnight local time, projected morse code lighting bursts from Footscray Community Arts Centre and The Substation in Newport art gallery. [23] The Between Us installation is scheduled to be repeated at the Perth Festival in 2023. [24]
