Rachael Fasano (she/her) is a Seattle-based multisensory artist primarily working with sound and visual arts. Her artistry centers around communal creativity and explores the interactive natures of perception and narrative. She has grown fond of utilizing abstraction and obscurity as a means of unearthing truth. Rachael holds a BA in Music Composition and Research alongside a minor in Studio Arts from Seattle Pacific University. 

As an artist experiencing dynamic disability, the roles of adaptation and improvisation have become essential to her practice. Her works are both challenged and inspired by the restrictions of her own body — a dichotomy that has shown her how liberation is ultimately bound to limitation itself. This aspect of our humanity is directly reflected in her artistic methods and materials, where she combines expressive painting, alternative musical notation and sound production, and live performance to explore how the limitations of one medium can bring a new perspective to another medium. As a composer, she has a special interest in creating more accessible repertoire for the performer and audience member impacted by chronic and acute conditions, and she is continuously excited by the way that experimentation allows us to find pockets of connection and healing.
