Jude Griebel is an artist of settler ancestry who works between Bergen; Treaty 7 Territory; and Brooklyn NY; Land of the Lenape People. Using techniques such as carving, modeling, and constructing miniature elements, he creates intensively detailed figurative sculptures that visualize our entanglement with the surrounding world. In his works, landscapes, the species we affect, and the waste we create, coalesce in vivid forms that illustrate the reach of our impact and consumption habits. Both harbingers of ruin and agents of transformation, his works build on art historical traditions of the anthropomorphic body to reflect a planet in a state of crisis.

Griebel's exhibition, Next World Emissaries, in on view at the The Southern Alberta Art Gallery Maansiksikaitsitapiitsinikssin from Sept. 17 17 to Nov. 20, 2022.
