Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg is a multidisciplinary artist examining our fraught relationships with nature and technology.
Through subjects as diverse as artificial intelligence, synthetic biology, conservation, and evolution, she explores the human impulse to "better" the world. Ginsberg experiments with simulation, representation, and the nonhuman perspective to question the contemporary fixation on innovation over conservation despite environmental crisis.
She received her PhD from London’s Royal College of Art, and her work is in collections including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, and ZKM Karlsruhe.
In 2021, Ginsberg launched Pollinator Pathmaker, a living artwork for pollinators, planted and cared for by humans, aiming to create the world’s largest climate-positive artwork. It received the European Commission’s S+T+ARTS Grand Prize for Artistic Exploration in 2023.
In 2024, she unveiled her first stained-glass window, commissioned for Manifesta 15 Barcelona Metropolitana, and opened her solo exhibition, Machine Auguries, at Bildmuseet, Umeå.
