Rio de Janeiro 1979 — Paris
Working across cameraless photography, analogue film, and photograms, Borinski investigates the iconographic and iconoclastic potential of image-making — processes where light itself becomes the instrument of inscription. Her current research pursues eco-friendly analogue (non)chemistries, situating photographic and cinematographic practice within questions of materiality, ecology, and feminist historiography. Theoretically grounded in the media archaeology of her mentor Siegfried Zielinski, her work affirms the analogue not as nostalgia but as critical historical knowledge. Born in Rio de Janeiro (1979), educated in Germany and France, she lives and works in Paris.
