In 2016, Miceli was a fellow at the Jan van Eyck Academie in Maastricht; she was a fellow at the Dora Maar House in Ménerbes,[4] and at Yaddo and the MacDowell Colony.
In 2019, her work Projeto Chernobyl was presented for the first time in its complete form in the US, at the Americas Society, in New York.[5] For this work, Miceli developed a method of image making to document the enduring effects of the Chernobyl nuclear plant explosion of April 26, 1986. Gamma radiation continues to be present. It is invisible to the naked eye and to traditional methods of photography that have been used to document the aftermath. With Projeto Chernobyl, Miceli made this contamination visible via direct contact between the radiation and film, which was exposed in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone for months at a time.[6]
Art
edit
Miceli’s work "applies investigative travel and historical research to chart the virtual, physical and cultural manifestations of trauma inflicted on social and natural landscapes."[7] She experiments with time-based media, notably camera and video to chart the effect of time in the context of societal and natural traumas.[8] Her artwork has been described as haunting and beautiful, leaving audiences with feelings of reverence and introspection.
Her work has been praised by art critics and aficionados alike for its powerful emotional resonance and ability to convey complex histories and stories.
