My residency period will focus on documenting the Toyosu Sefood Market, as research for new sculptures that explore jeopordized ocean ecosystems.

Jude Griebel 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.
