Pearson is a multidisciplinary artist whose previous film
and web stuff has been funded by the Arts Council,
Channel 4 and the BBC. Her stuff has been shown on British television as well
as in dozens of festivals worldwide She
studied at Leeds University, Central St Martins, Birkbeck College, Duncan of Jordanstone
College of Art and more recently Manchester Metropolitan University In
her unique performance and sound stuff she explores,
through various online and 'live' personae, often from an absurd perspective and
with acerbic wit, wide-ranging themes from life in general to life in detail.
And even the environment, sometimes. She willingly treads a very fine line between
art, pop, poetry, musical, music hall, cabaret and karaoke, regularly defying
classification A recent highlight was radio play on BBC Radio
6 'Tom
Robinson Introducing' show. Other 'live' performances and broadcasts have
included Vaudeville (Green Room),
Victoria Baths, (Network@Futuresonic)
and Artradio (Cornerhouse).
