Louise Lessél

New Media Artist and Technical Director

Louise Lessél is a New Media Artist and Technical Director based in New York. With a background in interaction design, computer science, and immersive art, she creates perception-driven works that merge light, code, and space into contemplative, sensory experiences. Her practice blends poetic sensibility with advanced tracking technologies, responsive visuals, and real-time systems design. She teaches Projection Mapping at New York University and leads ongoing research into performative technologies. 

Over the past decade, she has collaborated with fellow artists, agencies, and cultural institutions worldwide, creating large-scale public installations and live-tracked, interactive visuals for theater and music. Her work has appeared at light art festivals and concert halls, including philharmonic performances and shows featuring internationally acclaimed musicians. Louise’s latest immersive works are Sitrekin, SØSTR, and Glas, which integrate sensor-driven visuals with spatial sound. She is currently conducting research in live tracking of dancers.
