Keira Greene

Keira GREENE is an artist whose work takes the form of digital video, performance and writing. Her research is critically engaged with the representation of intimacy and politics of resistance, explored through poetic narrative, oral history, non-verbal language and the body. She is interested in producing a rapport through collaborative work across the disciplines of art and science, particularly with her role as a woman artist engaged in fieldwork. Greene has created artworks about artist communities and significant individuals whose work has facilitated social and political movements, radical ideas and alternative approaches to living. In 2015, she made Totally on Fire, a short film restaging a game and social experiment from the Esalen Institute on the grounds of the secular community Braziers Park, Oxfordshire. In 2016, she made the film Grain at the home and historic dance deck of dancer Anna Halprin in California. Greene is currently working on various long-term collaborative projects with musicians Paul Abbott and Michael Speers, dance artists Katye Coe, Alexandrina Hemsley, Susanne Mayer and writer D. Mortimer.
