About

Mira Hirtz is a curator, multi-media artist and movement practitioner who explores the intersections of art, health, ecology and science. Her work takes many different formats, from exhibitions to performances and workshops.

Mira’s thinking and doing is informed by embodied practices and concepts of care and access. As a curator, she also wonders about how global and local, as well as human and non-human narratives come together. 



She graduated from the MFA Creative Practice in somatic dance at Trinity Laban Conservatoire London and from the MA art research at University of Art and Design Karlsruhe. Mira co-curated the program series “How do we care?” at Badischer Kunstverein 2020, as well as the touring exhibition “Critical Zones. In Search of a Common Ground”, initiated by the ZKM | Karlsruhe and the Goethe-Institut South Asia. Her recent exhibitions include “feel soft” at ASC Croydon, London; “SOMA CITY” at We are Awareness in Art, Zurich; and “Exploring notions of care: a performative workshop” at La Loge, Brussels.



Currently, she co-curates the research and exhibition project “Intersections & Interventions: Barwe & Klee” in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut Max Mueller Bhavan / Pune, the Zapurza Museum of Art and Culture Pune, and the Zentrum Paul Klee, Bern. Furthermore she is the accessibility advisor for the art-based charity “Turf Projects” in London.
