Join visual artist, Alice Hargrave, as she discusses her work with Marina Post of the Chicago Bird Collision Monitors

Alice Hargrave is a photo based artist working in Chicago, IL. She incorporates sound and video within layered installations of her photographic imagery in space. Her work reflects on the notion of impermanence: environmental insecurity, habitat loss, and species extinctions. Hargrave recently collaborated with The Cornell Lab of Ornithology NY, to create her project Last Calls/Pink Noise— portraits of threatened birds using sound waves of their last calls in the wild. This project has been widely exhibited, most recently in Lianzhou, China, winning a 2019 Illinois Arts Council Artist Grant, as well as semi finalist awards in both the 2019 and 2020 International Awards of The Print Center, Philadelphia, PA.

Hargrave’s work is included in several permanent collections such as The Museum of Contemporary Photography, The Art Institute of Chicago Artist Book Collection, The Ruttenberg Collection, Nuveen Corporation, and Hyatt Corp. Her work is exhibited widely: The Museum of Contemporary Photography, Yale University Art Gallery, The Smart Museum, The Tweed Museum of Art MN, Art Metz, France, The Griffin Museum of Photography MA, 516 Arts Gallery Albuquerque NM, Newspace Center for Photography Portland OR, among others. She has received many awards, been published and reviewed in several journals such as Huffington Post, BBC News, and ARTNET.
