I promised all those years ago that your lost lives and broken dreams
would not be in vain-that I would never give up 
until mine came true-in memory of you.

 My sculpture finally arrived at the gallery after being stuck in US customs since 20 June!


I'm the luckiest mom!

Now I understand myself. Now I know that in my soul, I am Greek.

my Site-Responsive Art practice:
letting the process unfold,
always following the thread wherever it leads,
because art is so much more magical when I don't have a plan


stunning imagery, inspiring story

 

 for the first time, I came to the game for the half time

 

I am working on a concept
for my fashion brand
 

A total work of art, a sumptuous aesthetic journey, a complete artistic creation which, through prodigious efforts, embraces visuals, experience and performance. 

These are the ideals at the heart of the Gesamtkunstwerk.

Self-Sovereign
 "Self Sovereign", from my genesis collection on KnownOrigin, tells the story of how I became a cryptoartist from being on Clubhouse. If you have ever seen my IRL work, you might wonder how my post-NFT work relates to it, because it is so different.

This image by Amruta Patil is from "The Broken Heart Repair Shop". I had one + wondered why there wasn't a place to get help. There is a shop for everything eles but!, including a car repair shop, which this is based on. As Nurse Candy I sat down with everyone who wanted to share their story. They shared their deepest woes + at the end I wrote a prescription of how to recover.

"Self-Voyeur" is a behind the scenes perspective on an Instagram influencer. This body of work explores the monetization + promotion of the image of self-an individual’s obsession with her own image, responding to the societal obsession with the image of other.

My installations are immersive. The intention is that the audience is within the space, like being behind the scenes, IN the scene of a film set.
It All Started Here
In Clubhouse, I listened to @CryptoSteveWand @RyanCrucible and @irvinxyz speak on the ethos of the space. I read all the white papers. I realized that my work on the blockchain would be forever.
My Art Studio in the Metaverse 

I knew then that I could only put work on the blockchain that represented permanence. My work would be about my dreams, my imagination + how I see the world. So the work you see is what I hope to be, not what I am, nor what I was.

Me, 2023, by Michelle Pattee

 

My kid. Literally the best person I know.


 

I’m an artist focusing on process oriented, narrative based Site-Responsive projects that are a fusion of Environmental, Digital, Performance and Installation Art. I graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design at 51 after raising my son as a single mom. At SCAD, for the first time in my life, I learned to have an artistic practice. I was allowed complete freedom in the development of my projects, and, crucially, I was required to research and to document my process. This lead to the development of an artistic practice that dwells outside the scope of traditional disciplines. My works incorporate the use of multiple mediums built upon a foundation of site-responsiveness, storytelling and process. I always ask:  How can I best convey the concept of this work? incorporate multiple layers of meaning? which medium/s? Since graduation, I have continuously created, honing my process and practice and devoting my life to building my oeuvre under challenging circumstances.

A Site-Responsive, Site-Specific work, Sebastopol, CA

My art practice has multiple dimensions: I am a process oriented, narrative based artist focusing on Installation, Performance, Environmental and Virtual projects. Process is the foundation of my work, while narrative maintains the through line. I am medium agnostic, which allows me to use the mode of expression, materials and processes that best embrace the storyline.

I have spent the last 2 years focusing on building my virtual practice. In the next several years, I will be consciously working on integrating and fusing the various mediums into large scale environments that incorporate all facets of my practice.

 BREAKTHROUGH


 

being loved changes your life

 thinking of you again this day

all of you, whose dreams were lost, broken hearts left behind

for you, I live my dreams

for it was you who showed me how

 

here's to you

Dear Sun, Thank you.  2020 Still shot by Badir McCleary from drone performance 
 
This work is from a series called, "Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Aether" Each drone performance focuses on one of the elements of Nature. Badir and I have completed "Earth", "Fire" and "Water"  in the series so far. 

"Dear Sun, Thank You" focuses on the healing power of the sun and is the element of Fire. I have lived with the debilitating effects of Lyme Disease since 1991. When I moved to Los Angeles from the East Coast, my suffering eased from being in the warm, dry and sunny climate.

These works would not be possible without Badir's talented filmmaking. During lockdown, I was looking for ways to transcend the boundaries of the stay at home order. Badir's drone work from the BLM protests inspired my idea of drone performances. We are equal artists on this project

All I want for you my son, is to be satisfied
 

Happy 30th Birthday to my favorite person in the world
I love you Buddy



So proud of you and all you've become
You're a one-of-kind human being

 Every isms and every theory should be studied, but they can only be viewed as hypothesis, not dogmatic credo; they can only be viewed as a source of reference, not as rules of religion; they can only be viewed as inspiring tools, not as absolute truth that halts any further critical thinkings. Only in this way can people cultivate creative intelligence, become able to solve specific problems, and emancipate from the superstition of abstract words.
