Pascal Miehe is a Scotland-based interdisciplinary artist working across drawing, woodcut printmaking, moving image, and performance. His practice engages with cycles of human behaviour, both historical and contemporary, questioning what is inevitable and what might be disrupted. Grounded in materially intensive and repetitive processes, his work explores the politics of gesture through sewn, carved, or choreographed structures that consider how bodies are shaped by their environments.
His moving image work Arena (2023), which documents the performance of a five-way tug-of-war, was shortlisted for The John Ruskin Prize and has been exhibited at Trinity Buoy Wharf in London and in the International Performance Drawing Series at DRAW Space in Sydney. The work responds to themes of struggle, collectivity, and agency.
He holds an MFA in Drawing from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design (2023) and a BA (Hons) in Intermedia Art from Edinburgh College of Art (2016). Recent activity includes the Generator Projects Residency (2024), a feature in Printmaking Today as one of its “State of the Art” award winners (2023), and inclusion in the Royal Scottish Academy’s 199th Annual Exhibition (2025). Alongside his practice, he teaches life drawing and facilitates interdisciplinary workshops on embodied image-making.
