Mathilda LaZelle (she, her) is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in video, installation and live performance. A MICA graduate with a MFA in Studio Art Mathilda has also studied at SAIC and received her BA from Mills College in Oakland. She is evangelical about her favorite unit of measurement, the Util, and would probably love to meet you!
Mathilda’s Universe is a site of fabulation grounded in extrapolative critique. Special relativity, subjectivity, myth and eroticism all play critical roles in the fabric of this umbrella. Mathilda’s multidisciplinary work picks at the porosity of “selfhood”, digging in where collective darkness congeals in great oozing sores of glittering absurdity.
