Marsh’s work is located at the intersection of artistic concerns
pertaining to performance, cinema and the broader question of the image,
and the cultural and social concerns that operate at the convergence
of speculative fiction, fashion, and the political, social and imaginary
stakes of territorial exploration. In addition, Marsh’s work pursues
and reconfigures the complex borrowings and the cross-fertilizations
between mass culture (panorama, vaudeville, puppetry, video games, etc.)
and artistic modernity.
Marsh’s works present conceptual and visual experimentations
that mobilize a certain feminine body (contemporary and historically
located at the intersection of feminism, the virtual and interactive
image, the human genome and imperatives of globalization) by positioning
it as the producer of the spaces that it traverses and inhabits. Marsh’s
works also rely on the spatial and immersive properties of multimedia
installation, as well as on the historical connotations of installation
as medium and form, to create parallel and speculative spaces of reflection
and spatial inhabitation for the viewer.
Marsh received her MA From Goldsmiths’ (London) and
her BA from Concordia University (Montréal) and is Senior Lecturer
at the University of Hertfordshire (UK). She lives and works between
Montréal and London.
