Olivia Hernaïz is a Belgian artist born in 1985. She first practiced as a copyright lawyer, before completing an MFA at Goldsmiths University of London. In 2017, Hernaïz won the first prize of Art Contest, a leading Belgian competition supported by the Boghossian Foundation.

Her work has been included in several invitation-only video festivals such as The Screening at Ladron Galeria, Mexico (2017) and Meer-kost #1: Provenance, Dok Gent, Belgium (2018). Hernaïz research leads her to look into the pervasiveness of the myths on which our modern western societies are built. She calls into question the efficiency and legitimacy of imaginary structures that human beings have created in order to live together: private property, democracy, laws, human rights, justice, money… Hernaïz expose her network of ideas using found materials collected compulsively – ideas of passers-by, derelict houses, fables, political logos and bank slogans. Through this collection, she explores the structure of society and the representation of political and financial power. She tries to understand what is left -if- to social interactions amongst individuals.

Her work has been shown in festivals, galleries, collective projects and open-air events such as POINT IN THE ENDLESS UNIVERSE, Moscow (2014), Galerie Arnaud Lefebvre, Paris (2011), AVIFF Cannes (2014), OCAT Shanghai (2014), Collection VIDEO SALON, Galerija Duplex 100m2, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (2016), and PARISARTISTES # (2017) among others. Her GLEE video series focuses on the fundamental technology of artificial light and the evolving dominance of screen-based light and its implications. Natural light, screen light, and filmed light intertwine. Since within the installations different temporalities emerge and shun into another frame/art scale – the light of the screen has brought us ever more realistic simulations, including simulations of intelligence and of life, and draws us into its reality. This reality and natural reality are in an escalating competition for our “hearts and minds.”
