Rebecca Racine Ramershoven (1987) lives and works in Cologne and Thessaloniki. She completed both her Bachelor's and Master's degree at the Folkwang University of the Arts and graduated in 2024. Since 2014, her photographic works have been shown in national and international solo and group exhibitions. As a visual artist, Ramershoven uses the media of photography, moving images and objects to negotiate questions of race-related representation and socio-cultural issues and possibilities. The engagement and integration of political and historical contexts play an immense role in her conceptual approaches. In 2022 she received the “Contemporary German Photography” scholarship from the Alfried Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach Foundation. Her work is represented in collections including Kunstpalast Düsseldorf, Kunsthaus NRW Kornelimünster, Aachen, Museum Folkwang, Essen. In 2025, she will take up a residency at the KunstSalon in Villa Aurora, Los Angeles.
