Sinziana Ravini
Born in 1976 in Bucarest, Roumanie
As a psychoanalyst, journalist (for Aftonbladet, Artpress, Technikart, etc.), magazine editor (Paletten), writer, and curator, Sinziana Ravini has conceived several “exhibition-novels,” including The Hidden Mother and The Chessroom (Atelier Rouart, 2012 and 2013), as well as the “exhibition-film” Black Moon (Palais de Tokyo, 2013), which blurred the boundaries between the visual arts, literature, and cinema. Each of them was built around an autobiographical or even autofictional narrative, creating intimate spaces in which intersubjectivities merge. These provided the opportunity for artistic creations, like the film Black Moon, which was the starting point, the mise en abyme, and the unfolding of the narrative suggested in the exhibition.
Born in 1976 in Romania, Sinziana Ravini holds a master’s degree in art history from the University of Gothenburg, a PhD in comparative literature from the University of Heidelberg, and more recently a master’s in psychoanalysis. Sinziana Ravini lives and works in Paris.
