Kalie Granier

Kalie Granier is a French interdisciplinary artist based in California. Her artistic practice explores life below the surface and the interdependence between humans and non-hu- mans through Ecofeminist values. She questions the links between our underwater environ- ments, their ecosystems, and our human bodies in the Capitalocene era to raise awareness of social and ecological imbalances, while imagining alternative narratives for a more equitable future. Her research lies at the intersection of art, science, and activism, with a focus on marine plants and relies on a close dialogue between scientists and environmentalists. Her ecological commitment is omnipresent in her creative process as she experiments with video, performance, up-cycling of local natural material gleaned from the beach, and the use of raw pigments in earth-based pain- ting. Using emotions as a guideline, Kalie Granier pursues a quest for collective consciousness and regenerative togetherness.

She is the co-founder of Loud Spring, an Ecofeminist Art Tank based in San Francisco.

Kalie graduated (MA) from the ESAG, Penninghen School of Visual Art in Paris. Her work has been exhibited in several Galleries and Museums in the US and Europe, ProArts Gallery (Oakland California), The MAH Museum and Radius Gallery (Santa Cruz, California), 836M Gallery (San Francisco), Galerie Linz (Paris, France), and more recently at Museum Centre del Carme (Valen- cia, Spain), Es Baluard Museum (Palma, Sapin), Loop Festival (Barcelona, Spain) and LA NAU Cultural Center (University of Valencia, Spain)…

Medusa is a project based on the reinvented Greek myth of Gorgon Medusa inspired from a legend of the ancient Mediterranean world.
