Evgenia Mikhaylova is a Russian-Chuvashian-Canadian interdisciplinary artist based in Tiohtià:ke/Mooniyang/Montreal. Her work examines the intricacies of communication eco-systems, language, and epistemology through a research-based practice attuned to linguistic sensibility and the volatility of sounds and bodies at play. Musing from the underbelly of language, her work unfolds through relational co-composition and situated meaning-making, where sense emerges as a provisional and affective event that surmounts fixed signification.

Working within spatial relations as immersive sensory conditions, her practice queries propositional structures as configurations that sustain indeterminate intervals where communication composes itself in the midst of its unfolding. Her work interrogates the porosity of knowledge through the conditions of strangeness in language as a generative force across sonic, affective, and more-than-discursive registers. Within this field, desire, attunement, reciprocity, play, and collaboration emerge as compositional forces in communication ecosystems that allow various voices and frequencies to cohabit, composing in a multiplicity of other types of knowing.
