Fleur Melbourn

Fleur Melbourn is a visual artist and writer from London working mainly with video. She is currently based in Athens. Her work deals with hidden structures of violence by parodying, fictionalising or bringing to the surface systems of control that take the form in classism, patriarchy and capitalism.

Since 2015, Fleur Melbourn has focussed on character-led videos, where dialogue and language is foregrounded to explore the complexities of structural power. In contained spaces, character’s sit glued to the spot, where they explore the shifting power dynamics of group behaviour.

Fleur Melbourn has exhibited, screened and been artist in residence with institutions and galleries in Europe and beyond including: Nottingham Contemporary (UK), The Sculpture Center (NYC), Triangle France (FR), Centre d’Art Neuchâtel (CH), Jerwood Visual Arts (UK), The Austrian Cultural Forum (UK), The Serpentine Gallery (UK), Camden Arts Centre (UK), Composite (BE), Moly Sabata (FR), SPACE (UK), In Extenso (FR), ANDOR (UK) and Le Bourgeois (UK). She has participated in talks and screenings at Belsunce Projects & Octo Productions (FR), Carlos Ishikawa (UK), SPACE (UK), Triangle France (FR) and Terzo Fronte (IT). She has been awarded funding by Fluxus Art Projects and Arts Council England.
