Mariah Garnett: Remote Guest Lecture

The UC San Diego Department of Visual Arts ranks among the world’s leading art schools. Founded on the principle that the production, critical analysis and history of art are inter-related activities, we offer undergraduate and graduate programs in both art practice and art history. Our students have the opportunity to collaborate with leading researchers in the sciences, engineering, literature, music, philosophy, ethnic studies and all the vast initiatives and resources of the greater university.

Garnett mixes documentary, narrative and experimental filmmaking practices to make work that accesses existing people and communities.

Mariah Garnett (b. 1980, Portland, ME; lives and works in Los Angeles) mixes documentary, narrative and experimental filmmaking practices to make work that accesses existing people and communities beyond her immediate experience. Using source material that ranges from found text to iconic gay porn stars, Garnett often inserts herself into the films, creating cinematic allegories that codify and locate identity. Garnett received an MFA from California Institute of the Arts in 2011 and a BA from Brown University in 2003. Recent solo exhibitions have been held at Commonwealth + Council, CA (2021), Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, CA (2019); Metropolitan Arts Centre, Belfast, UK (2016); Los Angeles Contemporary Archive (2016); Buenos Tiempos Int., Brussels, Belgium (2014); 2nd Floor Projects, San Francisco (2013); and Human Resources, Los Angeles (2010). Garnett&#x27;s work has been included in group exhibitions at Fierman Gallery, New York (2019); Magic Hour, Joshua Tree (2018); New Museum, New York (2017); Vamiali, Athens, Greece (2017); Goldsmiths, London, UK (2017); National Broadcast, Ireland (2016); Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2014); ARTSPACE, Auckland, NZ (2014); and Brooklyn Museum, New York (2012). She is the recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship in Film/Video (2019); Macdowell Colony Fellowship (2017); Harpo Emerging Artist Grant (2017); Artadia Los Angeles Award (2016); Rema Hort Mann Emerging Artist Grant (2015); and California Community Fund Atlass Fellowship (2014).
