Timeline

Janet Biggs is an American artist, known for her work in video, photography and performance art.

Biggs lives and works in New York City.

Biggs' work focuses on individuals in extreme landscapes or situations and often navigates territory between art and science.

Often working in collaborations with neuroscientists, aerospace engineers, astrophysicists and robots, her work draws connections between physical terrains and psychological, societal, or political dynamics.

In her videos, Biggs focuses on individuals in extreme landscapes, such as the Taklamakan desert of Western China, the Horn of Africa, the Arctic, and the Mars Desert Research station.

Her work explores challenges faced by diverse groups including the Uighurs, Indonesian sulfur miners and Yemini refugees.

She has captured such events as kayaks performing a synchronized ballet in Arctic waters and a NASCAR pit crew's grace struggle to service a racecar.

Biggs’ work has taken her into areas of conflict in the Horn of Africa and to Mars (as a crew member at the Mars Desert Research Station).
