Born in 1980. He lives and works in Paris.

Drawing on documentary practices, his work, which combines sculptures, films and performances, aims to explore and make real the hypothesis of entirely different worlds. From 2014 to 2022, he worked in collaboration with artist Raphaël Siboni on the series The Unmanned, a protean historical epic made up of multiple episodes retracing an alternative history of humanity over three seasons. In 2026, Fabien Giraud and curator Anne Stenne will launch the Le Féral project, a collective work set in the Limousin region of France, to be completed a thousand years later in 3026. He has exhibited at Mona (Australia), the Liverpool Biennial (England), the Lyon Biennial (France), the Okayama Triennial (Japan), the Palais de Tokyo (Paris) and the Casino Luxembourg (Luxembourg). In 2022, Fabien Giraud and Raphaël Siboni published ‘The Unmanned’, a first monograph on their joint work, available from Mousse Publishing.
