Education

Bachelor Degree in Art specialized in Painting —graduated from the University of Costa Rica. She has taken several courses related to her profession.

Focused on her work and engaged in defining and developing an integral concept of being human in this world, Garnier has been granted different awards at national and international contests, among them, it is worth mentioning the award for the Mural Contra el Dolor (“Mural against the Pain”) located at the Hospital Nacional de Niños (National Children’s Hospital) in her country.

Social Responsibility in the Arts

She has been devoted to reinforcing creativity and self-esteem —being invited by the Outdoor Museum of Modern Art in Punta Islita, Guanacaste, to be instrumental in the creation of a mural painted by the children of the day care nursery in the town of Islita.

In 2004, Garnier also taught Children’s Painting Workshops to patients at the Hospital Nacional de Niños in San José.

In 2006, she supervised children’s murals at the Manzanillo Elementary School as the main activity of the program

CARIBE CREATIVO (“Creative Caribbean”) of the Almendros & Corales Foundation in Manzanillo —aimed at recovering traditions and values from the cultural diversity of the Caribbean.

Garnier created the art project Bosque de las Mujeres (“Women’s Woods”) of the Tayutic Foundation in Turrialba, Costa Rica, a group performance/installation of personal empowerment involving women from the towns of Sitio de Mata and El Silencio in Turrialba and groups of women from San José. El Bosque de las Mujeres was formally opened on July 7, 2007 in primeval woods of the place. This same concept got her international invitations to Spain, Venezuela and Guatemala. That same year, she painted a mural together with Génesis next to the fire department in Santa Ana. Also the same year in November, she built a TEAM ART experience with professors, parents and children of Renacimiento School, in Madrid, Spain.

Professor, coach and curator

As a professor, she teaches private classes on arts and creativity at her workshop. She is also a curator for the Fundación por el Patrimonio (“Heritage Foundation”) of the Presidential House in Costa Rica.

Garnier is the creator and coach of the concept of team building through art —making viable an encounter with oneself and “the other”, a program intended for companies and institutions.
