Mira Calix

Mira Calix (born Chantal Francesca Passamonte in Durban in 1970 or 1971; died 2022) was a South African-born, British-based audio and visual artist and musician signed to Warp Records. Although her earlier music was almost exclusively electronic, from the 2000s onwards she incorporated writing for classical instrumentation into her musical works and expanded her practice to include multidisciplinary performance, film and multi-channel installation artworks. She often stated that she considered sound a sculptural material.
