camera trap (Aguti) Ed. 3/3 - Contemporary Color Landscape Jungle Photography
Edition 3/3+2 AP
Print ist unframed and comes with a sticker signed by the artist.
Tina Ribarits works with a conceptual approach in a variety of media including installation, video and photography to create site-specific installative objects. Her work engages with (female) cultural fictions such as the narrative of the country estate and landscape represented in victorian and antebellum literature (and their filmic adaptions), as well as the idea of nature in the light of exoticism and colonial history. She creates set-ups, treating them as virtual environments that allow for socio-visual explorations.
Tina Ribarits was born in 1981 in Vienna, she is based in Berlin and Vienna. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and received the Austrian State Scholarship for Photography in 2013. Furthermore she was selected as...

Find Figurative Photography for Your Home or Office
Life becomes art in figurative photography. Shared moments are captured and history is recorded in images of people and their lives.
Figurative photography is often used to describe a kind of photography in which people are the subject. Early black and white photography of people can be a glimpse into a past century — witness the celebrated work of photographers such as Ansel Adams or lesser-known artists like Berenice Abbott, for example. The cultural and social standards of the time are captured in these figurative photographs.
Mid-century photos might show the life and fashions of the day, sometimes with the shared thread of humanity, joy and love. Indeed, figurative photographs can be a source of inspiration and wonder, speaking of common life experiences and beauty. Vintage photos of celebrities and iconic actors can be valuable keepsakes as snapshots of a bygone era.
Just as if you were bringing paintings, prints or drawings into your space as part of the decor, there are many ways to arrange your figurative photography. Large photos can be statement pieces in a room. Smaller photographs can be placed on bookcases or on compact wall spaces to add an artistic element to a living room or a bedroom.
Find a collection of figurative photography on 1stDibs today.
