Mathieu Werchowski

Mathieu Werchowski is a French violinist, improviser, sound artist and visual artist born in 1973. After classical violin studies at the Grenoble Conservatory, he developed a language of free improvisation using violin and viola, acoustic gesture, sustained texture and expanded instrumental timbre.

His work extends into radio and film-related sound creation, visual collage and projects connecting art with landscape and cultural heritage. Since the 1990s he has performed in improvised ensembles and toured internationally, while his sound-design practice received a SCAM discovery award in 2012.
