Rita Ginzburg (b. 1985)
Born in St. Petersburg (Russia). Studied graphic design at St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, as well as painting and graphic arts at the Imperial Academy of Arts. Received additional education at the Oriental Faculty of St. Petersburg State University.
In her work, Rita pays special attention to exploring the relationship between the material world and sensory perception.
She is an artist who works with photography and natural materials. In her practice, Rita relies on an intuitive method and quiet attention to natural changes. She chooses natural artifacts—wood, fossils, and minerals—based on her inner response.
Traces of time and transformation become her starting point for creating photographs and installations in which she explores the connection between matter and perception. Ritu is interested in how form is revealed through slow observation and touch.
The artist does not simply capture objects, but reveals their hidden structure and the memory of a place. The monochrome palette in her works enhances the sense of wholeness and silence, allowing the viewer to focus on form and texture.
