Micah Rustichelli is a Brisbane-based interdisciplinary artist operating across modes of visual arts, circus and club kid/nightlife arts. Across these modes they play with readymade objects/images/content, endurance-based processes and predicament scenes, enacting these works in myriad spaces from galleries to nightclubs. This blurring of form and site has led the artist to a contemporary methodology that uses humour, queer practices and intersectional materials to explore contemporary concerns with a wide range of audiences.

Micah has developed this unique practice through residency opportunities such as the Metro Arts’ MAVA program, Workroom Program at Studio1, the Queer Development Program with Performance Space, and on various stages from Dark Mofo to Woodford Folk Festival. In 2023 Micah took the inaugural title of ‘Altimate Showdown Champion’ against 60 Brisbane nightlife performers and ‘Artist of the Year’ at the 62nd annual Queens Ball.

Micah is currently an Artist in Residence at Studio1 Brisbane.
