Marcel Marcel is an emerging video and installation artist based in Boston and born in the former Soviet Union. They work with microbial SCOBYs, experimental cake-scapes, lo-fi sculptural props, performance, sound-scapes, drawing, writing, AR face filters and digital ephemera. Together, these materials become a polyphonic mode to interrogate fascism, capitalism, surveillance and the fiction of borders and binaries. Hovering between the absurd and the abject, Marcel's work offers a speculative refuge for queer liberatory futures, joy and healing. Marcel received an MFA from the Vermont College of Fine Arts, creating a gesamtkunstwerk thesis called Hot Dogs 24/7. Their work has been exhibited in Boston, Chicago and Antwerp, Belgium. A highlight was a performance and project from Feb 2020 in Chicago with 120 Chicago style hotdogs and 9 costumed performers. Currently, Marcel is a studio resident at the Boston Center for the Arts (2022-2025) as well as a core member of the new media artist collective called Digital Soup. In July 2023, they were named as an artist to watch for by OyG Gallery in NYC. They are thrilled to be an incoming member of Mobius.
