RICHELLE GRIBBLE is a multidisciplinary artist exploring planetary connectivity. Her work examines networks and systems-based investigations to reflect the ways human impact, technology, and environment interact and evolve. She is a represented artist with JONATHAN FERRARA GALLERY exhibiting worldwide. She has had solo shows in Los Angeles, New York, Japan, and international orbit around Earth etched on satellites and aboard rockets. She has exhibited at renowned art fairs including Art Market San Francisco, Texas Contemporary, and Miami Project and had her artwork illuminated on a LED screen in Times Square NYC.
Gribble has completed 16 artist residencies as part of her project The Nomadic Artist, where she travels the world to reflect social and environmental changes across the globe. Awarded residencies include The Arctic Circle Residency, Vermont Studio Center, Awagami Factory, Kala Fellowship, and many more. Work presented in a TEDxTrousdale talk “What is our Role within a Networked Society?” and published in The Creator’s Project, The Atlantic, Artillery, Hyperallergic and VICE. She is a writer for the Kepler Space Institute examining the arts and humanities in space and is a Planet Ambassador at Planet Labs, an Earth-imaging satellite company devoted to use space to help life on Earth.
A strong advocate for bridging science and art, Gribble leads collaborations across industries with exhibitions at rocket companies, arboretums, bio-laboratories, hospitals, airports, and outer space. She is the Founding Director of SUPERCOLLIDER, an art + sci + tech exhibition platform and satellite initiative and co-founder of Beyond Earth, an artist collective exploring frontiers of art and space. She is a curator and board member for FEMMEBIT, an art and technology festival celebrating women in video and new media as well as co-coordinates Byte of Science, a monthly lecture series uniting artists and scientists in Los Angeles, CA.

STATEMENT | | |
I explore life at all levels of living systems – organisms, social systems, and ecosystems – to examine and promote our interdependence. Under closer scrutiny, neural-like nodes of connectivity reveal themselves as even smaller networks. By visually revealing structural patterns and characteristics within cross-disciplinary and embedded networks, the blending of distinct social, biological, and technological systems form one integrated whole – the Earth. My work has evolved from comparing networks (molecular systems, social networks, neural pathways, freeways systems) to deep analyses of their interactions. How does connectivity, for better or for worse, influence our lives and our future?

At the many intersections of art, science and technology, creativity, innovation and advocacy, a network of collaborators and colleagues steered by the trio of Kate Parsons, Richelle Gribble, and Janna Avner are thinking about the future while building a new present. Across their personal careers in art, technology, and scholarship as well as in crucial cross-platform venues and projects, they and their network offer a unique, unapologetically feminist perspective on the futuristic zeitgeist
Over the past three and a half years, Richelle (as I’ll refer to her) has been an artist-in-residence in 15 different programs around the world, from a biosphere in Arizona to a ranch in Wyoming to the Arctic Circle in northern Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago.
Deborah Brockus, director of BrockusRED, has choreographed DUST: Permutations of the Unknown In collaboration with visual artist Richelle Gribble, and composers Peter Askim and Zac Greenberg for three performances at Ivy Substation.
Much like the bird experts who were called in to make sense of the turkey video on radio and television news segments, the artists in Spontaneous Emergence of Order use scientific rigor to deepen our understanding of the natural world and humans’ relationships to it. For Tanya Chaly and Richelle Gribble, this often involves processes not so different from those used by field researchers to catalogue and categorize flora and fauna, with particular attention to how both have been impacted by human behavior.
Richelle Gribble's work is included in an exhibit inside the BioBat Art Space.
Richelle Gribble explores the interdependence of life at all levels of living systems – organisms, social systems, and ecosystems.
Multimedia artist Richelle Gribble presents “The Nomadic Artist: Traveling the World with Artist Residences."
Richelle Gribble’s pulp-painting series “On Place,” translations of aerial photographs into vast fields of green and white, complicates assumptions about pictorial space and abstraction.
Richelle Gribble’s exhibition, ‘Anthropocene’, took place at the Jonathan Ferrara Gallery (New Orleans, LA) between May and July 2018. With a strong interest in environmentalism, the artist examines human impact on nature and the biological consequences of human influence. Gribble’s highly conceptual work includes painting, drawing and sculpture.
"Anthropocene," a solo exhibition by Richelle Gribble, explores the concept of man's impact on and relationship with the environment, while connecting humans to nature through her tactile, colorful, and multi-layer works.
Rachel Gribble's publication in the Journal of Space Philosophy.
With “Dear President,” South Bay Contemporary sends a message to the White House, with artist Richelle Gribble.
On Water Street, we wandered in through the open-doors of Studioworks one morning to find the current artist-in-residence, Richelle Gribble, an outgoing native Southern Californian in her mid-20s, newly arrived for her one-month residency.
Richelle Gribble creates mixed media paintings and drawings, prints, videos, puzzles and sculptures. Her artwork is inspired by concepts of virality, biology, networks, group dynamics, and social trends that connect us all.
Richelle Gribble's work included in a combination of science and art.
Richelle Gribble‘s drawings are both informative and aesthetically impressive. Her use of colour draws immediate attention to the themes of each piece.
