Mélodie Blaison was born in 1992 in Avignon (Fr). After studying flute at the Conservatoire, she graduated from the Fine Arts School of Nantes (Fr) in 2016. She continued her studies at the post-graduate diploma Arts et Sound Creation at the ENSA of Bourges (Fr) in 2021.
Her work is a space of experimentation where modular sculptures, immersive installations and sound objects are mixed. She is interested in hybrid spaces that can generate fiction while questioning our relationship to the world via creative processes rooted in care, ecofeminist theories, or the poetic mapping of speculative worlds.
With a work of collecting sounds and voices, breath and water as modes of connection, and electroacoustic and musical composition as a gateway to the reactivation of mental representations, her research takes its place in a desire to create immersive, narrative, and sensory listening experiences.
In parallel, she is developing a solo electroacoustic experimental music project that combines different flutes, including the transverse flute and ceramic creations, and the work of collecting field recordings, which for her is a means and a tool for transcribing the state of the world. Her work is shown in different places like Nantes, Marseille, Bourges, Strasbourg, Bruxelles, Rotterdam or Paris.
Avant le Rivage released in 2024 by Wabi-Sabi Tapes is her second album, following on from VINTVRI, released by Grande Rousse Disques in 2022.
