ROCH

London-born and based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-media artist Kate Miller is fascinated by crossovers of space and language, and by rethinking the “mundane and ubiquitous ideas” found in every day life. The bridging of grand scale and domestic scale is a concept Miller has been exploring in her work since her time studying performance and sculpture at University of the Arts London’s Central Saint Martin’s college, and continues to probe in the impassioned synth pop she makes as ROCH.

The now 24-year-old Miller started playing around with synths and software once she got to university, where she studied sculpture and spatial practice. She began playing with music in her art pieces — exploring the behind-the-scenes spaces in the music industry within her sculptures and performance-based work. The pieces she created had to do with “how songs are written, and what collaboration means.” They’re about structure and duality, situating music objects in spaces they wouldn’t typically be found.
