Grace Hartnett is a multidisciplinary artist concentrating on film direction and installation design.

A delicate balance between visual simplicity and carefully crafted chaos, Grace’s work is informed by a fascination with human behavior, organic forms, and non-linear movement within time and space. By balancing surreal sculptural elements with the exploration of the human psyche, she delivers complex, cerebral experiences to the viewer.

Lives in Brooklyn, New York, and works internationally.
