Michèle Champagne est une graphiste qui circule entre la recherche, la direction artistique et le design d’édition à travers les médias. Sa recherche intérroge la psychologie positive, l’esprit anti-critique, la mesure du bonheur, et leurs phénomènes communicatifs. Elle travaille la publication comme une conversation publique, et elle dérive les arcanes de la création open source, la rédaction collaborative et la participation des lecteurs. Elle crée des magazines, des journaux, des rapports annuels, des sites web, des réseaux sociaux, des forums de discussion, et des couvertures de livres numériques.
Après une maîtrise au Sandberg Instituut à Amsterdam en 2011, Michèle est reconnue pour ses collaborations avec Artexte, Droog, Mediamatic Foundation, Metahaven, Penguin Random House Canada, Strelka Institute et VPRO, un difusseur public néerlandais. Elle écrit pour la revue Back Office à Paris, le magazine Volume à Amsterdam, et la revue The Gradient par Walker Art Centre à Minneapolis.
