Gabriela Klier

I was born in Buenos Aires in 1986. I studied Biology, but when taking a more existential approach, I decided to study Philosophy and got a PhD within the framework of the “Philosophical Group of Biology”, interweaving research with socio-environmental activism. I live in Bariloche and I am a CONICET researcher at the National University of Río Negro. I explore the poetics, affects and ethics cross cutting environmental research in northern Patagonian sciences. I am engaged with projects articulating art, science and philosophy as an affectionate-experiential strategy for thinking and living: Rumia Project, Collective Thinking, Mushroom Week, and LENTO (an art-science festival). I have been teaching in formal and informal settings (workshops on environmental philosophy for the elderly, art workshops for scientists, science workshops for artists, undergraduate and graduate courses, and poetry workshops). I published two poetry books, “Biology” and “The Deaths, the Houses and the Beasts”, respectively.
