Chelle Destefano is a multi-medium and multi-disciplinary artist working in performance art, textiles, drawing, painting, sculpture, installation and mixed media and winner of The Lake Art Prize 2020 and winner of the Lara Irvine/Meg Endersbee Bursary scholarship by Graduate Women Victoria that proudly supports my Deaf art projects.
Current and Upcoming: What I Wish I'd Told You major Deaf exhibition in collaboration with Claire Bridge, 2nd iteration at Wodonga Hyphen Gallery Space, opening 17th September until 4 December 2022

A Deaf Artist extraordinaire that communicates through her artworks, commenting with her introspectives.
"Regardless of the candidness and originality in her dream-like atmospheres, Destefano’s roots can be traced in the poetic masterpieces by Charles Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud and Lautréamont." - quoted by ​Timothy Warrington, International Confederation of Art Critics

I have recently been supported by these organisations through commissions and funding for my performance and textile projects.
