She has exhibited both nationally and internationally,and is the founder and curator of OUT OF SITE, a festival of live art in public space in Dublin.

Michelle's practice is fundamentally performance based. She is interested in the face to face encounter inherent in performance. Her more recent work focuses more on issues intrinsic to performance itself: the body, duration and the relationship between the viewer and the performer. Humour and satire are used to draw people into the work. In recent times her work has also evolved through video, sound and sculpture. Michelle's practice often explores how we engage with our environment and the people around us. Her practice looks at the frisson that is created in our engagement with the world.
