Grace Papineau-Couture is a Canadian artist from Edmonton, Alberta, currently based in Chicago, Illinois. Working across sound, installation, and performance, Grace pulls at the threads of folk horror – a genre that explores tensions between modern life and archaic fears – uniquely merging the physicality and ephemerality of analog audio and folk storytelling to explore modern ritual and superstition. With a material interest in using sound as raw material, Grace dismantles historic rituals and superstitions through the creation of field recordings, sampling and handmade uncanny instruments.
