Justin Brice Guariglia (born 1974) is a contemporary visual artist who over the last two decades has developed a unique transdisciplinary art practice working in collaboration with philosophers, scientists and journalists to develop a more informed, holistic, ontological world view. In doing so, his art has become a research practice to investigate the world, and forge a deeper understanding of important ecological issues of our time.
In 2015, Guariglia began flying on NASA science missions[1] over Greenland as an artist, to gather imagery that would become raw materials for his art.
Guariglia’s artist intervention selfie app After Ice[2], which localizes and visualizes sea level rise using NASA science, received 13 million impressions on the iTunes store in its first week. The app was developed unofficially under the advisement of several NASA scientists.
He lives and works in New York City.
