Giulia Bruno is a Berlin-based artist working across photography, moving image, language, and media.With a background in biology and studies in photography and film, her practice develops throughlong-term research into the entanglements of technology, nature, and the cultural construction of the visible, with particular attention to climate change, biodiversity, and artificial landscapes.

At the core of her work is a rigorous and sustained process of image production, through which time,transformation, and instability are observed, recorded, and rendered as forms of knowledge. By returningrepeatedly to places, landscapes, and visual motifs, she develops a practice of close attention capableof making perceptible subtle changes, sedimented histories, and continuously evolving relationshipsbetween human and non-human worlds.Her work has been exhibited internationally, and her photographs have been acquired for the MAXXIArchitettura collection. Her film Capital received the Visioni Italiane Award.

 In 2018, her research onlanguage as a technological act was selected by Mark Rappolt for Future Greats in ArtReview. In 2022,together with Armin Linke, she developed the exhibition project Earth Indices. Processing the Anthropocene, presented at the Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW) in Berlin.
She is co-founder of Studio Poor, with Paola Raheli, and of fold/interval, with Giuseppe Ielasi and FabioPerletta. 
She is Professor of Methodology and Design for Photography in the Master’s programme atISIA Urbino.
