Myriam Van Imschoot

The position Van Imschoot occupies in the Belgian art scene is characterized by a movement between the institutional field and the medias, through which she experiments with already existing contexts, if not creating her own.

[1] Myriam is a founding member of Sarma[2] and runs within this organization a publishing house for digital artist publications[3] that embraces orality.

Myriam Van Imschoot graduated in Germanic Philology and specialized in Performance Studies at the University of Leuven in Belgium.

Fascinated by phenomena of long-distance communication, Van Imschoot started a cycle of works that deal with yodeling, crying, waving and bird calls.
