MARK FELL
Mark Fell is a multidisciplinary artist based in Rotherham (UK). His practice draws upon electronic music subcultures, experimental film, contemporary philosophy and radical politics.
Over the past 30 years Fell’s output has grown into a significant body of work – from early electronic sound works and recorded pieces, to installation, critical texts, curatorial projects, educational systems and choreographic performances.
OKKYUNG LEE
Okkyung Lee is a cellist, composer, and improviser who moves freely between artistic disciples and contingencies. Since 2000, she has worked in disparate contexts as a solo artist and collaborator with creators in a wide range of disciplines. A native of South Korea, Lee has taken a broad array of inspirations—including noise, improvisation, jazz, western classical, and her homeland’s traditional and popular music—and used them to forge a highly distinctive approach.
While Okkyung is probably known best for her improvisational work utilising visceral extended techniques on her instrument, she has been creating various types of compositions and site-specific works, responding to its architecture, audience, or objects surrounding her, producing an immersive experience that also challenges the built-in hierarchy in traditional concert settings. She has appeared on more than 30 albums, including her latest solo cello release “나를 (Na-Reul)” on Corbett vs Dempsey, “Teum (The Silvery Slit),” written for Acousmonium by GRM and live cello, released on GRM Portraits/Editions Mego, and critically acclaimed “Yeo-Neun” on Shelter Press.
Currently Okkyung is a 2025 fellow of the DAAD Artists-in-Berlin-Program.
