Parisa Karimi is an artist, filmmaker, cultural educator, and researcher whose transdisciplinary practice explores sensorial, ecological, and philosophical questions at the intersection of human and more-than-human bodies, postcolonial histories, and industrialized landscapes.

Her artistic practice brings together media art, film, performance, essay, animation, collage, sculpture, and olfactory compositions. Through these forms, she creates multisensory installations and experiential spaces that explore invisible and overlooked aspects of shared histories.

Her work engages with decolonial processes of unlearning binary categories and (re)learning holistic approaches that open possibilities for radical imagination and alternative ways of relating to shared presents and futures.

Grounded in site-specific artistic research, Karimi’s practice draws on anthropological methods such as walking, archival research, and interviews. She often works collaboratively with local communities and develops projects in response to specific landscapes, histories, and cultural contexts.

Her works intertwine documentary and speculative approaches. She uses technologies such as interactive interfaces and projection mapping to create immersive environments that connect physical, digital, and sensory experiences.

Karimi is the founder of RanGBarang (RGB) Studio and the HeimatlosGrenzenlos network, a platform dedicated to promoting anti-racist and intersectional media, art, and pedagogical practices.

As the artistic director of RanGBarang Studio, she also collaborates on film and theatre productions. Her works have been presented at international festivals, museums, exhibitions, and art spaces.

From November 2025 to January 2026, Karimi presented her first solo exhibition in Taiwan, How to Connect With Landscape, at the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts.

Karimi studied Philosophy at the University of Cologne and Audiovisual Media at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne.
