Pauline Galiana, a versatile mixed-media artist, challenges society's overlooked facets, addressing race, feminism, consumerism and hybridization. Her work combines noble and mundane materials using meticulous and meditative processes, extracting meaning from unexpected encounters and entropy. Born in Algeria and raised on the border between Switzerland and France, Galiana received her Master of Fine Arts degree from ESAG in Paris and holds a Christie's Art Business Certificate. Her work has been exhibited in various galleries and museums worldwide, including the New York Public Library, NYC; Kentler International Drawing Space, Brooklyn, NY; FSU Museum of Fine Arts, Tallahassee, FL; Columbus Museum, GA; and Stadtmuseum Deggendorf, Germany. Galiana's work is included in several notable collections, such as UBS and the National Museum of Romanian Literature, where she won a 2018 Bibliophile Object-Book Biennale award. Galiana currently resides and works in NYC.
